Oh you're not one of those, PC. You actually wrote code. CLOS bending
stuff. 

The Real Experts I'm talking about (from c.l.l. days) were the ones chiming in
on any question with hypothetical complaints about everything (cf why
CL "doesn't have many libraries", and so forth).

Hmmm. But that said, I've asked a few minor questions of the Technorati
Here On LW/H-UG, having set out my reasoning and rationale for the 
decisions I'd made, and was told each time that You're Doing It 
Wrong And You Should Instead Use 1,400 Different Libraries And A
Different Implementation Too Because Reasons. Except None Of The
Libraries Do What You Want So You Should Write The 1,401st One
Instead. Oh And Make It Work On SBCL Too Because Reasons.

Completely ignoring my use-case explanations ☹

But I don't know any Lispniks in my home town (the bum end of
Australia), so You Guys are all I have ☹
