In honor of April 1st, I've put together a little comic tale (a sneak
peek from my book-in-progress) with many twists and turns I hope you
will enjoy:

for the duration of the story?

You've stole my idea of no side effect dictatorship :), nevermind I
loved your comic.
Don't be afraid that some of the lisp troops are defecting to the
enemy I'm coooking a new library for lisp, something that will enable
lispers to summon the powers of prolog, apl and much more. Soon the
lisp world will be free from tyranny of extended loop and show the
dictatorial bastards how the real functional programming should look
like.
