Ah, 1956. I was seven years old and Robby the Robot from the science fiction movie "Forbidden Planet" had just leaped into popular culture. Robby was an awesome automatous AI. The movie was really quite something for 1956. Faster than light travel, cool space ship, 3d printers, alien super brain race that had disappeared (the Krell), monsters from the ID.  To me Lisp is like something created by the Krell. "As though my ape's brain could contain the secrets of the Krell." I asked John if he had seen the movie and he had. John is "Krell Smart". -David Leibs On Aug 18, 2011, at 10:15 AM, Alan Kay wrote:
