Apparently he thinks he knows enough about it to
say

"The latest hot language, Python, is a watered-down 
Lisp with infix syntax and no macros. A new Lisp 
would be a natural step in this progression. I 
sometimes think that it would be a good marketing 
trick to call it an improved version of Python."
