Curtis: You can do this if you want:
(def car first) (def cdr rest) but most people accustomed to Clojure would be much more familiar with first and rest. The Content of the Address and Data Registers haven't been applicable for a long time, but it wasn't only the names that are changed -- first and rest work on all kinds of data structures besides lists, and return implementations of a sequence abstraction, not necessarily pointers to cons cells.
