ABSTRACT

Where I work, there are 12 researchers who never use Lisp, 3 who use Lisp for perhaps half of their programming and 3 who use Lisp for most of their programming. Almost all of the non-Lisp programming is in C. This amounts to a ratio of almost 3 to 1 of C programming versus Lisp programming.
