Well you shouldn't and my apology for stated that. I was informed off
list it was an intentional tribute to the language. It was just one
of those things where you saw something that caught your eye and only
as a passing thought, "don't these people know its a well known
acronym?" I think I saw there was some relationship, but thought
about the long run usage of "LISP" in reference to this work might be
confusing. In other words, should people refer to this work as LISP?
Its rhetorical.
I'm out.
