No no no!  The not-really CommonLisp in the review was ExperCommonLisp,
from Expertelligence.  I have considered Expertelligence to be a
bad joke ever since suffering through an endless stream of
unusable versions of ExperLogo, all labeled "Version 1.1",
that they sent me over a span of months.

I am hopeful that Coral Common Lisp, due out "real soon now",
will be for real.
