Thanks, Stuart and Chris (it's Chris, right?). As the programming language that is Clojure seeps into my mind, I realize what a beautiful thing it is. As I said to a friend a couple of days ago, I'd demurred too long in choosing a language for the extension / scripting / executive layer for my theorem prover, but when I finally realized that Clojure was the way to go and started digging in to the language and contemplated the design for that new addition to my system, I quickly realized the tremendous power that Clojure brings. Thanks to Rick H. and everyone else who has contributed to making Clojure what it is now and what it will become over time.
