Immoral yes, but its because you persuaded tiobe that scheme and lisp
are SAME language so they can be aggregated, something that couldn't
be farther from the truth. Tiobe is the index of programming languages
and as soon it started become a index of programming languages WITH
SOME language families the sense was lost. How do I know what part of
lisp popularity comes from scheme and what part comes from lisp. When
that information was lost by aggregation,I stopped fallowing it.
So you did cl a bad favour. But don't worry to much you had a lot of
good karma to spare.
