At McDonalds:
LISP:
(bag (box (fries) (box (burger) napkin)
Burgers are magically handled by George.
C:
struct s_bag bag;
struct s_box fries_box;
struct s_box burger_box;
struct s_sandwich burger;
unsigned int num_fries;
fries_box.contents = num_fries;
burger_box.contents /* TODO: convert s_sandwhich to INT */
...refactor 1.3 jigga-times...
At your PC:
LISP:
How do I think about this problem?
C:
How would a compiler think about this problem?

Your argument boils down to the fact that you suck at C and/or don't understand how computers work?
Look, there's no conflict between C and Lisp. If you want attention that badly, find a real issue to argue about.

You forgot two closing parentheses in the Lisp code and it makes me very angry.

My text field ran out of room, so really there's three parentheses written on top of one another, and two after burger.

Your arguments boils down to the fact that you both suck at SICP and/or don't understand SICP?

LISP:
How can I run this at a decent speed?

Vrooom!
