Yes, because I'd forgotten that the Lisp Machine used the word process for threads.

My knowledge is pretty much limited to the free Common Lisp implementations, since I never had a budget for a commercial one, and their threading story has not been so happy. But that's not a valid criticism of Common Lisp.
