Loving PicoLisp — I've gone through a few PicoLisp phases, each very short -- a week or two. I would stumble around, grumble about its weirdnesses, and go back to Common Lisp. However, it is tiny (~380KB - a bit bigger than I remember). It is plenty fast - loading the SpellBinding dictionary for maintenance, sorting it, or processing it to find potential games, takes way less than a second! With CL I actually had to work to get duplicate elimination to go under 10 seconds... So it's really...
