Putting "directory" information after the script name can be a powerful way 
to call a script.  Generally, search engines don't index pages with a 
question mark in them, so if you want them to be indexed you can call your 
script this way.  It does not need to be a valid directory, it is just a 
replacement for QUERY_STRING.  I even think some CGI packages recognize 
variables sent this way and parse them for you, I don't remember if CF is 
one of those.
