Why don't you just but your UDF's in your Application.cfc directly? Then those functions are automatically available from anywhere within your Application.cfc. Otherwise, I would put those functions within a utility cfc, which you could place in an APPLICATION scoped variable inside your onApplicationStart() method, which you could then access from anywhere within your application. Either method should force you to re-evaluate how you set and reset your scope variables, and you will probably find better ways of doing these things than you may have used in the past.
