I disagree. Among the remaining Lisps, it is the best thing ever. Those who have thought otherwise, have left for other pastures, like D*lan and Scheme and Arc. There are not "better" than Common Lisp by a long shot. | Let's see. Common Lisp people on comp.lang.lisp spend lots of energy | denegrating Scheme. No, they don't. They spend some time rejecting the Scheme propaganda. I think you need to pay attention to who is arguing for and against things. | I've never seen *any* posts on comp.lang.scheme that are concerned to | denegrate Common Lisp. That is because they post it here! Christ, are you trolling or what? /// -- In a fight against something, the fight has value, victory has none.
