Re: "this web page is written in lisp"
A corollary to Greenspun's law: a web page with JS contains most of a buggy lisp interpreter

you know this lisp interpreter? it is buggy? it is so small, i wonder why it isn't well polished.

i was kidding. no idea about quality
This is a mind blowing, and humourous read. A well articulated piece with imagination, and insight.
Sexps are so much nicer than anything else... I can't believe the same people who object to 'too many parentheses' think JSON or XML are better...
this web page is written in lisp — it contains small lisp interpreter written in java script, and the rest is written in lisp. open page source and scroll. (:
