A BATTLE BETWEEN TWO WIZARDS OF GREAT AND MYSTERIOUS POWER!
It was a rainy night at the AI lab and Sussman the white was finishing up his magical workings. He sensed a presence watching him and bellowed in his nasal voice, "QUUX, WHAT EVIL ARE YOU UP TO NOW?"

The Quux removed his cloak of invisibility and responded in a nerdy voice that made Sussman cringe. "I HAVE COME TO DO BATTLE WITH YOU, SUSSMAN! YOUR REFUSAL TO SUBMIT TO THE ENTERPRISE HAS MADE THE DARK POWERS ANGRY AND NOW YOU MUST PAY WITH YOUR LIFE!"

Sussman only chuckled and rubbed his hands together in a way that made him look especially Jewish. "Tell me, Quux, you have been working with the Sun Java incantations for some time now. Just how weak have your LISP powers become?"

Guy Steele is a true programming polyglot. When I asked him what languages he has used seriously he came up with this list: COBOL, Fortran, IBM 1130 assembly, PDP-10 machine language, APL, C, C++, Bliss, GNAL, Common Lisp, Scheme, Maclisp, S-1 Lisp, *Lisp, C*, Java, JavaScript, Tcl, Haskell, FOCAL, BASIC, TECO, and TeX. “Those would be the main ones, I guess,” he added.
