They're not on any of the machines in my classroom right now. I can close
and reopen browsers all day long, and the cookies are still there. We did
this as a student exercise yesterday, to demonstrate the difference between
CFID/CFTOKEN and J2EE session management.

If the cookies persisted from a previous session, I think they'll be
available for all browser instances whether you open a brand new browser
instance or not.
