I've already handled this with feo. I could do it again for deo, or take a
few and do an explanation here on thesite (probably better in the event it
could be improved). I'll try to find time on Friday to write up an
explanation.

The evolt cookie is *.evolt.org. So, yes, it can be read by any
blah.evolt.org site.

Hell f'ing no   =)

ok. i'll write up an explanation of what i'm doing with feo. it's not
complicated. it was just kind of hard to figure out which was the best way
to approach it.


thanks,
