| What *you* have missed, is that some of those exact same brightest minds
| to ever touch a keyboard went from Common Lisp to design a new language
| and did a few things differently the second time around.

  But they designed a new language and set up a new community for it!  They
  did _not_ hang around in the Common Lisp community and whine about it.

| Are you saying that you're brighter than Moon?

  Please think about what you are _actually_ saying.
