How could Guile possibly be any mroe Usable, Practical, Easy or Useful
than Scheme?  It's just an older scheme, isn't it?

And if you look at usage, Emacs Lisp is probably the most widely used
Lisp in the world, so it would rank highest in all categories except
maybe Ease of use.  But I couldn't really comment on that, since I
haven't done much in any of them.  (I still say it because of it's
lack of closures, and editor-specificity ...)

Karra used to be the resident Emacs(/Lisp) expert before he gave it
all up to become a PHB.   (This should wake him up and bring him
here.) :)
