At our January monthly meeting, Steve Good demonstrated interactivity between ColdFusion and Flex.  If you recall, he had a hardware failure the day before the meeting and ended up giving a limited version of what he had prepared.  Steve was generous enough to not only present that night but offered to to a re-do online. 

We will be doing this presentation Sunday night at 6:30pm CST via Connect.  It's always more fun to do these presentations with more people in the room for discussion, questions, etc., so count on joining us if you have an hour free between 6:30-7:30 that evening.  Here are the details and the link:
