Yes, lots.

Yes, lots.  How's that for detail? :-)

I don't spend as much time as I would like programming, but when I do 
code, I'm usually in Lisp.

>   is the biggest obstacle in your opinion)? 
  
Lack of common library set and lack of standardization in critical 
language components now like GUIs and networks. 
  
> - Would you be interested in a Lisp-related job or contract work? 
  
Sure. 
  
> - Is your organization interested in hiring Lisp programmers? 
  
Not at present, but we look for Lisp experience in candidates for any 
technical position we fill.

Not really.  I would be interested.
