Good Morning Tony,

In an information gathering exercise, I am asking for your reasoning
for this stance.


Creating a continuation would, I think, be no more difficult under a 2
(or more ) stack scheme than under a 1 stack scheme. The same
information would be required in both cases and from where I stand it
would seem to be easier to do this with separated stacks as you would
only be dealing with control semantics infromation on the control stack
to genearte the control continuation information.


Or is there something not obvious that I am missing?
