Holy smokes, please ignore the previous email on this thread. You most certainly do not need to read SICP (the MIT course mentioned), and in my experience, being inculcated with Scheme will make your Clojure code look insane, as idiomatic Clojure (insomuch as there is such a thing) doesn't have functions nested with a butt-load of anonymous functions.
http://clojure-doc.org is great and you should go there first. Don't freak out about your environment just yet. Use whatever you use now, and if you're lucky enough to use Vim or Emacs, it'll work for the future, too. Clojure Programming is, in my opinion, the best book out there right now for Clojure. Check it out if you get the chance. Do not rush into refs, atoms, agents, or any of that stuff. Just right some simple code, learn it, and then expand. I've been writing Clojure code for about 15 or so months, with the last six being every day professionally and I still have never created a protocol. Good luck! Clojure is no harder than Python, C#, or whatever you come from, and is totally rewarding. Learning it will be a pleasure.
