Name one noteworthy program that was coded in LISP.

I'll wait.

It's part true. They supposedly attempted to reimplement the fine Lisp code using SEPPLES for a while and had trouble, and they eventually ended up reimplementing a Lisp interpreter in SEPPLES. Greenspun's 10th rule and all.

You can't really blame big businesses for doing this, as they just wanted their software written in a language for which they think they could get replaceable programmerscogs easily.
