You? That... that was you? GOAL? Sir. I have no idea what to say. You were my direct inspiration for a long time. I'm a gamedev (worked at a couple studios now) and I've wanted to integrate Lisp into gameplay for years. I even got a Franz CL evaluation. The discovery of GOAL/Crash Bandicoot further motivated my efforts. Ultimately nothing came out of it; Lua and Python are just so much easier to integrate into a realtime C++ simulation (video game) and are nearly as effective. However, I became a better programmer for life. Discovering GOAL enabled me to think like "if Naughty Dog could do it, then so could I", which sparked me along a path of learning that profoundly impacted my sense of programming aesthetics and quality. Thank you.
