I must confess, that I succeeded to convince a few people that i "designed" a "data description language for ... (a specific problem)", while in fact I used (a subset of) Rebol. It wasn't even a dialect of Rebol, but Rebol itself! It didn't need to use all dictionary words while using my "library" which was specified "inconspicuously" in "the header" of the description. When I told them the truth, they didn't want to believe, because I used czech words!
