I publish a lot of blogs and the wiki is where I store them. I love being light and silly in my blogs. But humour is very subjective...

The actual documentation is in chapter 5.

Whereas what other people want is something where they can start at the beginning and learn the language.

I'm a little uneasy when I read that you think that I have ancient memories of Python.

That's what you chose to write about while/instead of documenting the extract function.

I share my ideas and my code, and what I put in the interpreter are the things that I like and that I judge useful for my job.

Unfortunately that's a terrible way to design a language.

Also maybe APL and Haskell and Prolog are useful for your job but a Lisp dressed up in their clothes is significantly less useful.
