Tord Romstad is a professional LISP programmer and computer chess hobbyist, and
has posted to r.g.c.* and CCC in the past. He had said that he wanted to write a
chess program in LISP a while back, and I wondered if he ever did, so I emailed
him. He said that he hadn't, and he shared this opinion that LISP probably isn't
the language of choice if you're looking to create a strong program.
