To be honest, I already know what Lisp is about for about one year (you won't believe it, I learned about it in school!). But I never really used it, I only heard many things about it in theory. And, damn, although I read this group for a few days, I already found out that there are many competent Lisp hackers and at least as many bigots and ignorant advocates.
