Yes, that's why you're running into this problem. You're writing to Variables.Session, not Session. To make what you're trying to do easier, I recommend that you store all your session data within a structure, then copy that structure around as needed. There are two reasons for this. First, if you don't do that, you'll have to loop over your session variables to write them to the Session scope. Second, the Session scope contains some data you wouldn't want to overwrite, like the token values used to match a session with a browser.
