An interesting aside: I subscribe to several language Usenet newsgroups. LISP is one of the most active groups - consider (in my current reading):
awk: 610 eiffel: 27 forth: 1834 perl: 12 ruby: 9178 postscript: 294 java: 96 smalltalk: 327 tcl: 2917
lisp: 3370
Only comp.lang.ruby is more active (in my list). So where is everybody? :-O
PS: No, I'm not fluent in all those ;-) And no, I'm not subscribed to comp.lang.c or similar.
I am an active Lisp enthusiast. But, alas, I cannot make it up to Chicago for meetings unless I can plan a month or more in advance. The recent activity in the group though is encouraging and I send my moral support from afar.
