Yeah, but don't tell a Lisp advocate that. Advocate as opposed to normal user - you know the kind, claims that there hasn't been a good programming language since Lisp (even Scheme is a bit dodgy), you can't do anything in C that you can't do better in Lisp, you can't do tail recursion in an assembler language like C (don't need to, he should say, and anyway it's wrong), and anyway GOTO is dirty. Why would you accuse Lisp of having GOTO? Lisp is the only structured programming language in the world! It's dirty hacks like C which use GOTO!!!!!1! Yah. That kind. Don't cross-post... Richard
