I forgot this: Graham basically accuses programmers who don't find LISP as
attractive (or powerful, as he puts it) as he does of living on lower
planes of existence from which the "heavens above" of functional (or only
LISP) programming seem incomprehensible. He writes/speaks persuasively,
he's a successful businessman, but is he also an honest debater?
