i believe this creates a LOCAL variable, and the request.variable would
still be available.
So, if you were to issue the command:
<cfset newvar=datasource>
before the line:
<cfset datasource = "AnotherDSN">
you would get a cferror, if you want to access the request.datasource,
you'd have to specify it.
<cfset newvar=request.datasource>
