// The following bit of code runs on every page, and alters ASP's session cookie 
// so that it saves to disk instead of just in memory.  That way, if we open a 
// new browser window during the lifetime of the session, it will return to the 
// original session, instead of creating a new one.  It expires at the same time 
// that the server session expires.
