Seems my inaugural post on c.l.l was 3/3/95, demanding satisfaction over 
(length '(a . b)) going belly up.

That means I turn cll-13 in a month, might be time to move on.

I am new here but no, it is not time.

No, the blogosphere. It will be more fun actually deleting comments I do 
not like than killfiling their authors. It is the same satisfaction I 
get on a midsummer's night sipping a gin and tonic listening to 
mosquitos come to grief in a bug zapper.

Like Mom said, I am no Buddhist.

Arc, btw, is years away from challenging CL for Real Work and will never 
lure me away because I use every bit of CL at one time or another. But 
as a recruiting tool and possibly a client-side authoring tool -- we 
already have one lite port to Javascript -- Arc rocks pretty hard.

Hmm, I might have to unsubscribe from c.l.l then.  Will be pretty
boring here...

Where do you think I am going to get my material? I'll do a killfile 
amnesty, the people in there provide the best rant fodder.

And I'll still have to help noobs, the yobbos here... well, they remind 
me of Eliza. Hi, I am trying to get create a defun that inherits from 
hashtable and fixnum... Fine, let me help you inherit your defun from 
hashtable and fixnum.

Besides, someone else will take my place. A teacher once wrote about her 
solution to class discipline. She said she had noticed that whenever 
there was this really troublesome kid who she knew if he were gone 
everything would be perfect and this kid did finally transfer out that 
some other kid immediately started making just as much trouble. She 
decided there was a role called Bad Kid and whoever was worst would fill 
it if it were vacant, pretty much be unnoticeable if not. So the next 
time some troublemaker got disappeared she simply announced that the 
position of Bad Kid had been eliminated. Apparently this worked on the 
stupid little devils.

But as long as Duane does not eliminate the Dog Handler poition, c.l.l 
will be fine, someone will step up and send poor Tim's cortical systems 
into apoplexy over his/her weak imitation of Kenny weakly imitating Erik.

And you may not be losing a Savage, you may be gaining a user. 
Hunchentoot, that is. I don't see Blogger sites doing ads, and I need 
beer money from somewhere if I do not want to have to go looking for VAX 
Basic/C work.

I have no cortical system, I am now a Being of Pure Light. Let me tell
you, it's a serious pain being weightless when skiing.

I think you still have some of my helicopters though: remember to send
them back before you go.

They might let you onto Planet Lisp. I don't know, they
seem to be tightening the criteria for who they subscribe.
I think, like, 99% of one's posts have to be Lisp related
or else they boot you off. Since you get sidetracked so
easily it's just a matter of time before you unceremoniously
get voted off, unless they give you an honorary position,
due to making the most c.l.l. newbies cry :)

gmane.lisp.lib.arc is better.
