Hi Kyle

Diccussed in the past on the list. . .  [data session source] gets
linked to the session ID via the cookie.  You have to quit the
browser and start up fresh in order to trigger an updated source
value.  Once the source is set for that cookie, it's persistent -
in case they leave and come back via another route.
