Pushing plant's limits is always dangerous and may (often) result in death - especially if you push the holy grail.
And the recent crosses of Cocos haven't brought much experience so far. If I remember right there's a Butia x Cocos or Cocos x Butia, but the plants are still small. The real holy grail would be cold hardy coconut palm

Yes, it is among the newest threads... this cross. Also, somebody suggested that cross with Syagrus might be more viable.
I googled back Gabe's link and found for you this website he posted here some time ago.
It's a very nice reference site for any (sub)tropical horticulturalist.
Scroll down and find Cocos nucifera. There's lots of info in a very aesthetically and informationally pleasing way.
Also citruses...
