If you're interested in Lisp-like PLs, then also study what happened after 1959. It sounds stupid, I know, but a lot of people don't seem to do it, which is one of the reasons for the slow progress in dynamic languages.

- stcredzero 16y agothen also study what happened after 1959 A better sense of history would do our industry a world of good! Heck, also be aware of what went on from 1960 through 1985. If there was some more awareness of this, a our industry would be years ahead of where it is now, instead of having wasted so many man-hours reinventing the wheel.
