I have learnt a great deal about modern state of Lisp from comments written by Mark and others like pjmlp on HN. By reading their comments I've learnt that Lisp is relevant in non-Lisp languages too. So many programming languages borrow concepts that were explored in Lisp languages. And not just Lisp. ML too. Their comments helped me learn this kind of background.

If I could get a directory of active Lisp devs who comment on HN that would be great! Maybe even create a feed out of their comments. Is there any feed of any kind on HN? Even a basic RSS feed could be useful. I could pull the whole feed and filter them out for their comments.
