	My Lisp Experiences and the Development of GNU Emacs - GNU Project - Free Software Foundation (FSF)
		That is the basis for the free software movement — the experience I had, the life that I've lived at the MIT AI lab — to be working on human knowledge, and not be standing in the way of anybody's further using and further disseminating human knowledge.
		The Lisp machine was able to execute instructions about as fast as those other machines, but each instruction — a car instruction would do data typechecking — so when you tried to get the car of a number in a compiled program, it would give you an immediate error.
		The Lisp community in the 70s was not limited to the MIT AI Lab, and the hackers were not all at MIT.

	SLPs talk about Lisping - Therapy for Children
		Speech pathologists, for example, working in remote areas, providing therapy on a consultative basis, or constrained by bureaucracies, may not always be free to provide services in exactly the way they would wish.
		I realize it's difficult to assess the impact of an articulation disorder (such as a lisp) on a child's education, but we have to consider the possibility that the child might be VERY aware of his / her deviant speech pattern and might not be fully participating in the classroom as normally developing children.
		Speech pathologists working in SA schools and preschools do not usually work on lisps because they are considered a mild communication difficulty.

	What Can Be Done About Lisping? - Associated Content
		While the term "lisp" is usually used by non-professionals or lay people to refer to people who cannot pronounce the "s" or "z" sound, individuals with a functional speech disorder may also have a difficult time with the letters "r", "l" and the "th" sound.
		Additionally, there are two other types of known lisp - in a lateral lisp, a person produces the “s” and “z” sounds with the air escaping over the sides of the tongue, and in a palatal lisp a person attempts to make the sounds with the tongue while it is in contact with the palate.
		However, when a lisp or speech disorder persists past the age of 4 1/2, it is recommended that the child be evaluated by a therapist specializing in speech disorders.

		An interdental lisp, also know as a frontal lisp, is produced when the tongue is not correctly placed at the edge of the palate.
		According to Bowen, a lateral lisp is very close to the formation of the /l/ sound and the airflow directed over the sides of the tongue.
		As for a lisp she states, "The second horn is a harmonica-like device that teaches further lip closure and the skill of projecting exhalation in a frontal manner… Used alone, this instrument works on the standard production of the /s/ by assisting in the correction of a lateral lisp" (Rosenfeld-Johnson).

		In Castillian Spanish, the lisp has been institutionalized as a common part of the language.
		In each case, the lisp is generally faint and does not interfere either with speech or with the understanding of what is said.
		According to legend, the lisp became common in Castillian because one of the Spanish kings (generally identified as Felipe V or Carlos V[?]) spoke with a lisp, and his courtiers did not want to embarrass him by speaking otherwise.

	Lisping Information on Healthline
		Lisping is a speech disorder characterized by the inability to pronounce the sounds of s or z, known as the sibilant consonants, correctly.
		Lisping is also associated with immaturity: in some cases children will deliberately adopt a babyish lisp as a form of psychological regression.
		Unless it has psychological causes, lisping in children under the age of eight is considered a part of normal speech development and is usually not a cause for concern.

		These are all classified as lisping and include excessive pressure by the tongue against the teeth, the tongue held too far back along the midline of the palate, and a "substitute hiss" produced in the throat or larynx.
		One theory of the cause of lisping is the result of tongue thrusting, a physiological behavior that causes the tongue to flatten and thrust forward during swallowing and speaking.
		These children may grow up content to keep a lisp, feeling that it is a specific part of what makes them who they are, just as some people keep a gap between their front teeth and see it as distinct characteristic.

	Lisping / Caroline Bowen PhD
		The speech difficulty in a child with a functional speech disorder is probably at a phonetic level: that is, the child has a particular difficulty producing certain sounds correctly.
		The speech of a child with a lateral or palatal lisp should be assessed, by a speech-language pathologist, without delay.
		Some adults who lisp have no desire to seek therapy and are happy to accept their speech the way it is. There are many well known people (and and a few cats) in public life, and some colourful characters who have 'trade-mark' lisps as part of their image or persona.

	lisp - definition by dict.die.net
		All Lisp functions and programs are expressions that return values; this, together with the high memory use of Lisp, gave rise to Alan Perlis's famous quip (itself a take on an Oscar Wilde quote) that "Lisp programmers know the value of everything and the cost of nothing".
		One significant application for Lisp has been as a proof by example that most newer languages, such as COBOL and Ada, are full of unnecessary crocks.

		John Adams also had a lisp in his later years, but this was because he refused to wear dentures.
		The biblical figure Moses is described as having "slow speech and a slow tongue" (Exodus 4:10), which is traditionally interpreted as a lisp, though others have believed it was a stutter or merely hesitancy.

	lispin (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Lateral lisp: A lateral lisp is produced when the tongue lays flat and protrudes between the teeth, causing air to escape into the cheeks rather than straight out of the mouth when producing "s," "z," "sh," "ch" and "j".
		When children exhibit a lisp alone, it usually does not affect their speech intelligibility &endash; that is, how well you understand their speech.
		For a frontal lisp, at age 5 parents can consult with a speech-language pathologist although therapy will probably not be recommended at that time if it does not affect intelligibility.

	Lisp Information
		A lisp is a speech impediment, historically also known as sigmatism.
		The "lateral" lisp, where the 's' and 'z' sounds are produced with air escaping over the sides of the tongue, is also called 'slushy ess' or a 'slushy lisp' due to the wet, spitty sound.
		Finally there is the "palatal lisp" where the speaker attempts to make the sounds with the tongue in contact with the palate.

	Speech Therapy
		In the traditional sense, speech therapy is meant to help children who have disorders of speech and/or language.
		In these cases, it is important for both the parents and SLP to recognize that the goal of speech therapy is to correct faulty placement of articulation and not to correct obligatory symptoms such as hypernasality (see below).
		Finally, there are several speech therapy techniques that are designed not to physically improve palatal function but simply to mask or cover-up symptoms of hypernasality and/or audible nasal air emission.
