please, call it a "Lisp Environment", and answer the questions about what
kind of language Lisp is in the first question.  perhaps you could even
make a point that Lisp is a language that likes to sit above the operating
system, not a language like C that makes "executables" that are placed
beside the operating system, just like the endless row of other utilities.
maybe even "portability of source programs" is still a value these days,
when nothing else (not even Java) is _actually_ concerned with it.
