I hope you aren't going to be using that in any threaded program. That's one really nice thing about lisp's dynamic variables: they automatically interact properly with threads. (defvar *foo* nil) (let ((*foo* 5)) ; *foo* has value of 5 for all functions called from here, but only in this thread. In other threads it'll still be nil. ) ; *foo* has gone back to nil.
