Well, the guy is a real startup veteran. I explained to him with some help from a bunch of Paul Graham essays that we want to use Clojure just because it is "practically" more suitable for the problem at hand and not because we are academically inclined Lisp purists. I just needed to convince him that I am not religious about using _some_ Lisp but I am choosing Clojure because as an Engineer I think that would give us a distinct edge against the competitors. And the fact that Clojure runs on the JVM and has direct access to Java libs helped the case. He, being a fairly intelligent and pragmatic man, accepted my logic. Thanks a bunch guys.
