I am just wondering what is the main difference in terms of
implementation/use/performance when it comes to storing values in cookies as
oppossed to session variables.  I mean since cookies take up much less
server resources it seesm to make sense to use cookies for all seesion type
tasks.  The only thing is that the code might be a couple of words longer,
so its a bit of a hassle to write... annyone have any comments on this?
