>Opting for Lisp is like trying to use a swiss knife to cut a tree just because you love your swiss knife.
First thing I did when I got my Swiss Army pocket knife was go to the woods by my house and cut down a tree with its little saw. It was a small, aspen or poplar maybe 3" thick and it took some doing but it came down. That was my first pocket knife and the first tree I cut down, believe I was in third grade. Still remember the smell of the freshly cut wood and the damp humus, the feeling of the sap running over my hand; it was one of those shadowless overcast days, early fall before leaves started turning. I avoided washing my hands all day just to keep the smell of the sap with me. I did love my Swiss knife, took it with me everywhere I went for years. Thanks for the memories.
