[Followups trimmed to comp.lang.lisp.]
In this week's Deep Magic, Michael Bayne talks about (and provides)
his implementation of a Lisp interpreter in Java. It's just nifty.

Want to go one better? Be the first to write a Java interpreter in Lisp!
Impress your friends! Astound your enemies!

It's in the work.
I'm more interested in being the best than in being the first, though.
Cheers,

Could someone post a text-only site for this? I tried to
visit it, but there were so many frames and fancy things
that my browser crashed. This was even with images
turned off.

Try http://www.go2net.com/internet/deep/1997/03/19/body.html to get
directly to the page. It has a Java applet on the page, which might
help explain your browser's crash; try turning Java support off.
I found this bit interesting:
[...]
To get a feel for the syntax, here is a little Lisp program:
(setq a 5)
(setq b (+ a 15))
(print "value of b = " b ", value of a = " a);
[...]
One of many "hmm" moments, that.
