Heime:

One programming cliche for this is to
(1) start with a list that you create
(e.g., a let-binding to nil), so you
don't modify any existing list that
you might not want to mess with, (2)
use `nconc' instead of `append', to
append quickly (the _list structure_
is modified - destructive), (3) being
sure to set your list variable to the
result of each modification.

An even more common cliche for doing
the same thing is to do #1, then (2)
cons instead of append, and (3) when
finished adding list elements, do an
`nreverse' of the list you created.
That too is a destructive operation.
