continuations vs linear types

["S. Alexander Jacobson" <address@hidden>]

I read Bawden's paper on linear types.  He argues
that compileers should use linear types rather
than continuations for speed (to avoid the cost
of continuations).  He did not talk about the
value of continuations for implementing things
like exceptions.

Does any one here know whether linear types could
also be used to deliver these?
