Happy New Year, Tracy;
My personal thought about that "law" that says all systems of sufficient
complexity are equivalent to lisp, my thought is, that all matter of
sufficient temperature becomes plasma. True, but not of much use in the
ordinary world.
BTW, did the xkcd post have such an effect on the lisp community?

Until then...
