    Does this count? Or this? Lisp is a very powerful language. Paren matching is rendered trivial with any decent editor. The syntax is actually quite nice and clean once you get used to it. I wouldn't use it for everything, and it does have some core ugliness (hey, so does C++), but it has an undeservedly bad reputation.
