A comment on Lisp moving Forth moving Lisp. Parent comment
My analogy is how a changing electric field generates a changing magnetic field which generates a changing electric field which ... is light.
Forth is the electric field and Lisp is magnetic (or vice versa). They are two sides of the same coin.
Lisp really is the Maxwell's equations of software.
