You lose consciousness every day then wake up again with most of your
memories intact. The same could happen after decapitation, though with
greater difficulty. The information in your brain prior to
decapitation could be collected and used to resurrect you at the Omega
Point, and hence there would be no (permanent, first person)
cul-de-sac.
