Marvin Minsky - The Beauty of the Lisp Language

I don't know why I'm doing this, but isn't the fact that CLOS is implemented in Lisp, for Lisp an example for the open ended extensibility, and potential to adapt to new paradigms? There's a saying to create an object system for Lisp is a student's homework, while an object system for C is the job of a life? Or something along those lines...
And again, there's computationally nothing Lisp can do that C can't, but that's not what "open ended" and "strangely limited" should imply. Re-read the thread a few times, and a few times more after that.
