I'm curious...

Do anyone still code in CF? Like... company just starting... new
application.... etc...

I doubt that guy still exists on earth... =)

> 3) expensive special server side software to invest in
> 4) CF hosting more expensive per mo.
> 5) almost no heavy usage sites use CF (i.e. CNN, Facebook, BBC)
> 6) more expensive to maintain, update or add on to code
