I heard a quote from the head of a small and successful tech company in Austin. It went something like: ``Every so often I look in the job ads to get a scoop on the local competition. Whenever I find an ad requiring C, C++, or Java experience, I can entirely dismiss the company as any kind of potential threat. When I see Perl, Python, or Ruby, then I keep my eye on those companies. But when I see a requirement for LISP experience, then I really know that I had better watch out for that competitor.''
