I'm perfectly happy with Python and C. Do we really want yet another

I wouldn't worry about it. Quoting:

You even chose some of the nicer comments, perhaps
<http://www.xent.com/pipermail/fork/Week-of-Mon-20080128/048259.html>:
"We all make mistakes, but few of us are so vocal about how everyone
else makes mistakes or how we are going to correct them all. He has
basically called every non-lisp programmer a looser, then said that all
lisp users are misguided too but he will bring them to salvation.
Unfortunately his salvation has the appearance of something a novice
writes in a SICP course. Basically he is a braggart and people are
enjoying the opportunity to call him on it."
So, in other words, have fun and play in SICP, but don't announce the hacks
you make as the answer to the worlds programming problems :-)
