The only time cfparam will create a variable is if it doesn't exist.  So the
first cfparam will create the variable, and the second will not change it
because it already exists.  I'm not too sure what the intended behavior is.
You can just check the value of foo after you use your first cfparam, since
it will exist no matter what.  Then you can do whatever you want with it
based on the value you get returned.
