I am relatively new to Common Lisp and Scheme, so this may seem
like a dumb question...

How "similar" are Common Lisp and Scheme?  Is Scheme a subset of
Common Lisp, or are there features present in Scheme that are
missing from CL?  In other words, if I have a Scheme program,
and I want to port it to CL, is this easy, hard, or impractical?

Please respond via email.  I will provide a summary of responses
(if any) to anyone interested.

Thanks,
	Dan
