Hmmm... Interesting idea.  But I'm not sure that would work from a user flow point of view.

My bigger question still stands which is:

How is it that I set the value in a cookie and in $_SESSION, test later and they don't match?

This is an intermittent problem under load.

Thanks,

Dan

The part I still don't get is that when I get to the "confirmation"
page, and am pulling values from $_SESSION, sometimes it seems that the
sessions are getting crossed.  To re-cap this part of the puzzle -
    

Rather than storing the data in $_SESSION I think you could use a
drupal_set_message ( see
http://api.drupal.org/api/function/drupal_set_message for details).

It shows a specific message to a user based on their session.
