I haven't used a lisp for a few years, but I still remember after it finally "clicked" the weird _velocity_. Code just flooded out.
In other languages I hop around from class defs to class defs, different files. Just richocheting all over the file system. Something about LISP removes a lot of the ricochet. It's a weird sensation.
