Make sure you extend the timeouts in the CF Admin for the session variables. The default may be too short to do what you want to do. Also be sure that you use the same application name throughout your app in the <CFAPPLICATION> tag if you have multiple application.cfm files.

I need to go back and figure out why they did not persist.

By in large, to the average developer they are used the same way. If your web servers/cf servers are widely distributed/redundant than you need to use client variables or special hardware with session variables. We actually experienced a similar problem last week while trying to convert some of our code base to not require cookies (to store cfid/cftoken). One of our initial pages ran an include file that deletes all session variables. Worked great, except it also deleted the cfid/cftoken, and hence your page request changed to a new session, with the associated loss of data. Our easy solution was to do a <cfset cfid=session.cfid> and <cfset cftoken=session.cftoken> before deleting the session information, then reset the session.cfid = cfid. Unfortunately, this may not be correct, since I can't find the code right now to check my statement above.
