Sure, but as far as I'm aware, no other large group of LISP users exists. My contention isn't that most AI researchers use LISP now, but that most LISP programmers are (were?) AI researchers.
I've been trying to learn about early AI work, and I'm finding that to get any practical details you're almost guaranteed to have to wade through LISP code, although at least it's usually pretty well commented.
