screwlisp

What's a not-that-terrible way to echo Steele's remarks in The Evolution of that people use lisp because of our (in-arguably correct) perception that lisp is clearly the best, what Steele refers to as lisp's cachet.

I was also remembering <error>'s sometime remark that part of what keeps lisp great is the verdant mulch of people who really think lisp is the best doing their best to be the best, but they're actually mostly pretty nuts. I think it's important to be those people basically.
