Why Ruby is an acceptable LISP, by Eric Kidd

Eric Kidd makes a few fair and thoughtful points about ruby and lisp.

  1. LISP is a dense functional language.
  2. LISP has programmatic macros.

This post has been recognized as well in one of the most important blog of the lisp community. Very good news for ruby diffusion!

Credits to cas for mentioning it.
