To Rev or not to Rev

[Geoff Canyon]

LISP is purely functional, not object-oriented. There are OO  
libraries for LISP, but many on the LISP side of things look down on  
them.

I'm not sure how to catalog Forth, but it's not OO (inherently --  
there are OO implementations). It's procedural, certainly, but the  
inherent stack gives it a definite functional feel.
