You have no clue what Lisp is. It's a meta-language. See below. > Well you've failed in that attempt. I just don't see anything special > about Lisp.

Lisp syntax is a meta-syntax. With lisp macros, you can easily subdue the language syntax to your needs. I miss them a lot when I write in C. C preprocessor is stupid. C macros are ugly and dangerous, except of simplest cases. C syntax is too complex to have such a powerful macro system as Lisp has.
