A Trip Back in Time

I think I've mentioned before that Lisp has been like a strange
attractor for me. Well, I was just taking a trip down memory lane,
AKA Google Groups, and found some cll articles I posted that lead to
my first false start with Lisp. One that seems particularly telling
is this one:
http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.lang.lisp/msg/98015998cf646636
In the same thread, Rainer Joswig posted this rather prophetic
article:

I could really have had this language down by now :-(
I did find an extra quote worth adding to my .sig. My PowerBook G4 is
named interloper. Previously that name belonged to a PPro 200.
