Well, my bullshit monitor just went off. You can pretend you are comparing languages, but the real difference is almost certainly algorithmic. Do Lisp advocates really need to depend upon flawed methodologies to make their arguments?
Here's an idea, if you want to prove the superiority of Lisp: Write more software in it. Not crappy little websites. Real software.
