    Ja, I don't like when some people refer to other people saying he "smells", that's gross. And in this case, it's also plainly false: Russians don't smell more than, say, redheads.

    You are using multi-cores, it doesn't count (and please stop showing off with your mythical LISP, it doesn't even have hygiene, au contraire Haskell & Javascript).
