Over the years I've written hundreds of thousands of lines of Fortran, Cobol, assembly for a variety of machines, Forth, Rexx, Modula, Python. While Modula is syntactically perfect and Python, as its descendant, is pretty nearly so, they still have a rather old fashioned feel and while useful aren't particularly interesting.
That's an interesting observation, given that LISP is probably older than all of the languages you mention :)
