When Professor Allen was trying to create Lisp (List Processing)
as a language, it was to address the short-comings of Fortran,
Algol and Cobol (as they stood then).
So, the creation of "mlisp" (multi-lisp) is prompted by
the same sorts of short-come-ings....
1) Lisp, Snobol, (and indeed Fortran, Cobol, PL/I) suffer
from over-complexity.
