All my local projects live in 
~/common-lisp/

Because
1. It's a shorter name and less directories to traverse
2. Works without needing QL
3. QL does indexing on the local-projects dir that you have to remember to refresh

“No people will tamely surrender their Liberties, nor can any be
easily subdued, when knowledge is diffused and virtue is preserved. On
the contrary, when people are universally ignorant, and debauched in
their manners, they will sink under their own weight without the aid
of foreign invaders.”
