That story is pretty garbled. The early people on the Lisp Machine
project were certainly aware of the 801 due to assorted connections
with people at Yorktown, but they did not consider creating the Lisp
Machine by using the IBM processor.  (The Lisp Machine was invented
more than 3 years before the time you're citing, there, by the way.)
