Standard LISP is still very much alive.  It is the basis of the REDUCE
algebra system the author of whom realised a need for a standard basis
for his programs way back in the 60s.  The second Standard LISP report
was written in the late 1970s; I was responsible for the IBM370
implementation at that time.

But it still is active with CSL and PSL.
