You haven't implemented parameters in terms of your dynamic binding,
that's how.  You've merely presented my own implementation of parameterize
in terms of dynamic-wind back to me and put in code the exact
implementation of make-thread-parameter that I described.  In short,
you've done nothing to prove your claim that you could implement
parameters with your dynamic-binding mechanism plus thread-local storage. 
Do you now admit that this claim is false?
