I loved Graham's characterization of the hierarchy of power in
programming languages:

  - Languages less powerful than the one you understand look impoverished
  - Languages more powerful than the one you understand look weird

When I compare Lisp and Haskell, the big question in my mind is this:
is lazy evaluation sufficient to make up for the lack of macros?

I would love to hear from a real Lisp macro hacker who has also done
lazy functional progrmaming.
