Speaking of rehashing old arguments...

In fact it seems to me that the recent discussion has (along with a lot of
heat and digression) made huge progress (a lot of it due to John Cowan,
whom I confess I thought of as The Enemy in the previous round of argument)
toward a strong synthesis.

But, yes, if push came to shove, and I had to choose between Scheme sitting
around looking beautiful while Common Lisp brought home the bacon, vs. both
Scheme and CL toiling away in the coal mines while nobody looks beautiful,
I would proudly choose the former.

"Languages should be designed..."  That is all ye know, and all ye need
to know.
