Ok I stand corrected technically.
I was speaking more generically -- elisp as a member of the
dynamically scoped 2-lisp family.
ie. to the family of {MAC,Franz,UCI}-lisps that preceded scheme and
CL.
[Personal note: I did my degree project in mid 80s writing a lisp
interpreter. The only reference I had was the UCI lisp manual. I
thought the scoping (I had implemented) was strange (static/dynamic
etc were no words I knew then). After I finished I got hold of the CL
manual
and then had the 'Aha: ' The goofup was not mine!]
