Lisp

Hey guys,
I did 10 second research on CS environment.
Here is what we have installed:
1). MIT Scheme ( which is a pretty good fail back plan )
There is an excellent book ( So I have heard ) Structure of Computer Programs from a course in MIT online.
Cmd: scheme
2). Austin Kyoto Common Lisp
Don't know much about it. Doesn't seem to be well supported. can someone look into it?
Cmd: akcl

So, that's pretty much our choices...or install it on our personal accounts. Can you guys confirm how big an install of clisp is?
When we say CLISP are we talking GNU Common Lisp?

Cheers

Btw, I still have to write a work report; I am thinking of comparing OCaml and Python :D
