Is this possible?  If so, how can you do it?

    At any spot that an <cfapplicaiton sessionTimeout=""...> tag or this.sessionTimeout="" property in a Applicaiton.cfc pseudo constructor is run the session time out will be set to the new value, as long as the value is set within the maximum allowed by the Administrator setting.

    But this, in itself, does not restart the session time out clock accept of course that a request was run to do this and that request did reset the timeout countdown.
