judith,

:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
: From: Judith Taylor
:
: In going through the code for thesite, I noticed
: that you are setting a lot of session  vars....
: without locking them.
:
: Since I'm basically doing some of the commenting,
: I thought I would bring this to your attention....
: let ya'll decide if you wanted them locked.
:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

in my experience locking session var reads/writes isn't nearly as critical
as locking application var reads/writes.  however, that being said, best
practice dictates that session vars be locked.

if you could be so kind as to make a note of any templates that write to a
session var and i will go in later and add the write locks.

thanks,

.jeff
