For some values of true.
While PicoLisp is certainly interesting, the bulk of Lisp and Scheme (and Dylan) implementations since the early 1980's have gone into a different direction.
For me, true Lisps are languages like T, EuLisp, Dylan, Goo and CL of course (their kernels are mostly equivalent, and can be compiled to run well on existing (virtual) machines.)
