Yeah, that is what I started to do, loading my drop downs in the get method if the list is null. In the reset method I set my drop down lists to null. I thought about putting them in the session and came to the same conclusion as you, no way to determin when to get rid of them.
Does anyone have a better solution to this problem? I feel all dirty putting logic in my forms.

I do that. The problems include getting error messages out when something goes wrong, and potentially fetching huge lists if the parameters are wrong. Can't think of any others. I used to get the dropdown lists in the action, and store them in the session, but I couldn't think of a way of getting rid of them from the session easily.
