Some people ask why there are so many Lisps... and
other people answer it is because of the REPL, this
is so simple, and then everything happens within that
which Lisp itself takes care of at that point, so
everyone can have their own Lisp dialect with little
effort...

Still other people then ask... because... eval.c,
the "Evaluator for GNU Emacs Lisp interpreter", is
4120 lines, so how does that work?

Has stuff been brought out to make it faster or is it
extras, like the debugger or something?

Pz, cred to Emacs C hackers...
