Yeah, I also commonly confuse the words <Lisp> and <Java>.
I also confuse the words <Xah> and <spam>.
Could happen to anyone.

It's not what I'd normally expect to find here, but it's not really
spam either.

It's not only because of content and posting to multiple groups but
because he advertises his website in every post.
The logo is very nice but I don't understand why Xah crossposted to
c.l.l. except, maybe just maybe, to show us that java has a better
logo than lisp.
Actually I really don't know a lisp logo that I could identify with
lisp.
We have a funny alien but lisp is not alien to me.
We have an agile lizard, but lisp does more.
The lambda is for purely functional and lisp letters make just a
curved word.
As for me:
Lisp is a river:
Lisp is a river, quick stream of water.
running with fast flow
Take your kayak and enter the current
toward the rapids, away from shore
Lisp is a river, wide stream of water
running with mighty flow
Drifting on surface, looking streight forward
you are a captain of a riverboat
Lisp is river, endless stream of water
flooding your shores
But you are a shaman,you'll rise new land
no one could hurt you, you're in control
cheers

my java logo is not supposed to elicit a Java fervor. It is designed
to reflect the verbosity, inflexibility, mechanicality, and in general
the silly nature of java.
Look at the funky J, and the long-necked a's. Look at the 2 strands of
twisted smoke stacks. Don't they remind you of a four letter word,
ding dong?
This can not be too obvious. Losing the subtlety loses the art.

I'm having "scar-ladden dotage with fanfare" put

"scar-ladden dotage with fanfare" :: The Flaw in Searle's Chinese Room
Thought Experiment, ironically exemplified by a Chinese man,
disproving both Strong and Weak AI in the same post :: Even Searle
couldn't have made this shit up

It is not clear to me why people suddenly think Usenet is a civilized
domain where people follow strict rules religiously somehow only on
those incredibly rare occasions when Xah posts, but clearly it is a
tribute to his originality.

I thought you were calling him a fish. Can we do this over so I can get my
bearings?

At the bottom of the page is a link to an "original" lisp logo. Click it
for fun. What you'll find is the ALU lisp logo that has been flattened
and changed to red. The extreme effort required to modify the ALU logo
clearly justifies it as a new and original logo, copyright Xah Lee.
For the record, I did not enjoy the java logo. The blatant plagiarism of
the ALU logo was even less enjoyable.

Tom, don't be a moron.
Per your information, i have modified the wording regarding the
copyright. Here it is a quote:
----------
The image is copyright (c) 2007 by Xah Lee. Feel free to use the logo
for LISP language promotion.
Note: This logo is a redrawing of a image found on the web. This one:
Lisp Logo. I do not know who is its copyright owner. It appears to be
a logo originating from http://wiki.alu.org/ (Association of Lisp
Users). If you knew who is its copyright owner or designer, please let
me know. If there is any copyright conflict regarding this logo, i
fully yield to its original copyright owner.
-------------
The page in question is this:
http://xahlee.org/emacs/lisp_logo.html
If anyone know who holds the copyright, or its original designer,
origin, etc, please let us know. Thanks.
(PS this post is also posted to the comp.lang.java.programmer for the
record, since it somewhat relates to legal matters)

That's the kind of answer that will get you into a lot of killfiles.

Any sane person who's seen Xah's posts before will already have
him killfiled.
