Ah, so you acknowledge that your average Lisper know more than a C hacker.
Pray tell, oh wise one, since all Lispers also know C, why aren't they using C? Why should we listen to you, someone who obviously has never used Lisp, over people who can use both?
mediocre programmer my ass...
Personally, I'd rather spend my time gaining exp with the language I'm using rather than learn some abstract syntax noone in the industry uses just to learn what I'd be creating in C/C++ in the first place.
BTW, have you ever taken an algorithm course? You can't even spell the word properly, which makes me seriously wonder, considering the number of times that word would have been bashed into your skull otherwise.
