I don't think it makes sense to conflate Lispers to Schemers. I've programmed in both languages but have a stronger affinity for Scheme partially because semantically it is less flexible and more "staticy" than Lisp. Philosophically, the languages tend to attract different personalities (to the extent that the highly fragmentary Scheme world can be characterized).
