s-expressions considered harmful

http://www.dwheeler.com/readable/retort-lisp-can-be-readable.html

programmers who think Lisp is unreadable are the kind of programmers who write:

(define (dot a b)
  (+ (* (car a) (car b))
     (+ (* (cadr a) (cadr b))
        (* (caddr a) (caddr b)))))

instead of

(define (dot a b)
  (apply + (map * a b)))

and then whine and cry about how unreadable their shitty code is.
