It is possible to write very dense and abstract functional code that is hard to understand but some Lisp-code is so readable you wonder if it is actually code! That said I don't see Lisp becoming big. Scala probably has a better chance. Sca

I'm no expert but obviously you could code some specific program to perform superwell given unlimited amounts of time. So the question is, given X amount of time to create a program, which runs faster? Not, given unlimited amounts of time,
