Wow, Lisp is pretty gross. There just doesn't look like a whole lot of order there, and it looks pretty annoying to write.

I do wonder if there's such a thing as a web framework in a Lisp, Arc or what have you, with templating and a url router and all that. Or if that's even possible. Or if the Lisp community would recoil in horror at the very thought.

I mean I know (as far as I know) this was pg's pet project and it's taken off like nothing i've written ever has, but I can't see it selling a blub like me on the language. Nothing makes me want to touch a Lisp less than seeing it.
