Re: define-typed: checking values on proc entry and exit

One of my old interests has been storing data as s-expressions. But just "storing" data is kind of useless, unless you can also search through it, query it. And, from experience, search/query is mostly useless without typing. Is `(foo (bar baz))` of type `(surname (given-name occupation))` or is
