Why does not the Application_Start() event fire when I debug my ASP.NET MVC app?

Question

I currently have the following routines in my Global.asax.cs file:

public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
{
    routes.IgnoreRout

I believe you have to shutdown/stop the local debugging server in order for the Application_Start() event to fire again... you should be able to right click on it in the system tray and choose "Stop".
