The continuation preserves the frame (the mapping from logical variables to their values), but not the values of those variables at the time the continuation was created.

This is one of the fundamental properties of continuations, but it does throw people. And it's why register contents have to be thrown away when a continuation is invoked, since the registers have values, and continuations don't preserve values.
