Why are we (and by we, I mean the article author) getting worked up about what should be a single, or maybe more, bug reports? It'd be a lot more interesting if you could use those conclusions to find out who wrote those parts of the code.

Just because you don't understand it, doesn't mean it's 'crazy', an 'illness', or even remotely illogical. Of course, I wouldn't know what to characterize it other than sheer sense of adventure. I can totally understand going for the highes

The point is that he won because he's a great programmer, not because he used Lisp. I was referring to the title and not the article. Do you understand that or have you got more asinine comments?
