Agreed, this is fluff, people are only responding to it because mentioning Lisp pushes HN's buttons.

If you want to read something good about Lisp, check out _Paradigms of Artificial Intelligence Programming_ by Peter Norvig, David Kranz's _ORBIT_, SICP, Dybvig's _Three Implementation Models for Scheme_, or the Lambda papers (http://library.readscheme.org/page1.html).
