Congratulations to Kaz Kylheku, who becomes the first person to be inducted into the Social Problems of Lisp Hall-of-Shame. How was this honor earned? Well a newbie asks an innocuous question over on comp.lang.lisp about the origins of Lisp-2 vs. Lisp-1 and gets in reply...

What value is there to someone, for instance me, in persuading you of anything?

Do you stand between me and something that I want?

The information is there; make up your own mind.

Newbies who require persuasion are typically just passive-aggressive attention seekers, who come with an agenda other than the willingness to learn: namely, they just want to engage their personality against another one.

If you're finding Common Lisp namespaces inconvenient, then maybe you're just not wired for that type of language. Go program in something in which variables, type names, goto labels, exception handlers, and all other entities are entered into the same namespace.
