> I don't get that impression from Lisp programmers. I observe a phenomenon on language fanatics, no matter what language, but in particular for the less-than-mainstream language: the desire to formulate trivial algorithms over and over again, just to enjoy the beauty of the result (and sometimes the mere fact of being able to do so).
I suppose people writing real applications in LISP have better things to spend time on. Regards, Martin -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
