Comment (by eschnett):

 Lisp. One of the oldest languages there is. Almost any character can be
 part of an identifier.

 IIRC, Steve added "/" as character that can be used in identifiers to work
 around a backward compatibility issue (probably a string containing a
 slash was used without quotes).
