I'm always on the lookout to improve my techniques, perhaps you can help 
here.  When you say "manage to get sessions to work", what exactly do 
you mean?  We wrote two routines for ourselves, SessionSet() and 
SessionGet(), which worked fine when coded and have done so ever since.  
Do I misunderstand you here?

Name two. 

It does force us into a transactional mode of thinking, which is a good 
thing anyway.  So that's one.  I never noticed any more than that.
