awesome!! he totally rips through preheld concepts, utterly destroys peoples conventional models on how code works! outstanding! so funny to see the end where all the students are completely rocked by what theyjust learned, no one can think of any questions!

The man is adamant in his defense of the language. He's selling a philosophy that he's seems so convinced it is the very best there is. It was somewhat entertaining to see him hear him introduce the "ugly" features of FORTRAN in his beautifully otherwise syntax-less language.

He nailed it home for me when he showed that since (demo 3) would not necessarily equal itself all the time, Scheme functions were longer mathematical functions in this new model; it almost brought a tear to my eyes.
