In article <534@alberta.UUCP> steve@alberta.UUCP (Steve Sutphen) asks for:

The only machines that run both Interlisp and Common Lisp are 10's,
20's, and Vaxen.  The two dialects are quite dissimilar, and your
chances of getting Interlisp on a Bolix or Common Lisp on a Dolphin
are pretty close to zero...
