I dunno 'bout that.  I am not as fond of Prolog's syntax as I am of Lisp's.
Yet when the shoe fits, I wear it.  The dialect of Lisp I most frequently use
is GNU Emacs Lisp.  This Lisp is truly canine, but the Emacs environment is
fantastic.

Regardless, as long as the syntax is short, simple, and unsweetened with fluff,
it is acceptable.  Notational simplicity will win out in the end, not only by
virtue of simplicity, but because it is easy to transform and extend.  From a
practical perspective, there is no reason why one shouldn't be able to
mechanically switch between reasonably simple syntaxes.
