I would have to agree.  I'd been hoping Walter would see the thread on 
true closures and see the tie-in with continuations.

Good stuff here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuation

I see gracefully handling the "back" button and maintaining appropriate 
state in web-based applications as a big use of continuations in the 
future, so I'm hoping Walter can help and/or Pragma can hack something 
for DSP.  There's a ton of applications for appropriately representing 
data along a workflow with continuations.

So, the closures / first-class functions discussions interest me very 
much, and continuations is a prime example of uses for those features in 
the language.
