So do many classic cars, but they're all a bit crap and almost every modern alternative is better.

I answered the question honestly. I hope I never have to code in it again.

Only that I was forced to learn/use it, and I found it really hard - I could do everything I needed to (back then) with Pascal or C, so it was just pointless to me.

For centuries, mathematicians have written f(x), and because of low level consideration that are obsolete since at least the 80s, Lisp has decided to write (f x).

I'm alergic to Polish notation.
