I just got my copy of Common LISP, Second Edition.  It's Family-Bible
size -- twice the number of pages as the first edtion!  How'm I
supposed to learn LISP when I can't even fit the text into my
briefcase?  Can you imagine what's happening at the universities?

"Yeah, I thought about taking LISP, but C's a better language.  It's
smaller, more portable."

"Now, class for exercises using LISP..."

"We took LISP off our computer.  We decided that it was taking up too
much room; why, just look at the size of the Reference Manual!"
