It looks strange to the human Lisp brain because we have trained it is the way it is. I'm doing it that way as well, but only because I want my Lisp to be understood by others I don't start re-training it (the brain) starting right now. > And non-parallelizable theoretically :) Is anyone really going to base parallelism on a bunch of local variables? With let and let*? But yeah, if that was actually so, it would be cool if not (probably) that big a deal... -- underground experts united http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573
