Er, weren't you one of the people claiming that you don't notice parens
when you're reading or writing Lisp code?

Oh yes, there is this:

Yeah, you are, you just did not use it heads down for a month. The way 
to tell if you spent enough time on Lisp is to look at Lisp code. If you 
see any parentheses, you have not spent enough time. They disappear in a 
month.

So, if you're still seeing parentheses, does that mean you've been coding
Lisp for less than a month?
