Your clueless attacks are starting to annoy me. I am not sure whether I
like it or hate it. But I am wiling to give it a month.

Why does Arc deserve a more thorough investigation than any other of the
recent Lisp dialects / extensions? (This is not a rhetoric question, but
is closely related to the central point of my criticism.)

Why not, say, lush [1], to pick an arbitrary (!) example...

Pascal

[1]http://lush.sourceforge.net/

That belongs in the ignore bin. We have never discussed lush. (To my
knowledge)

Then why didn't you ignore it? Pascal Constanza brought up some good
points. You immediately attacked at a personal level without
addressing those points. Why are you choosing such a response?
