Ever since the Scheme R⁶RS roadblock, I've been looking to branch out into other Lisps outside the Scheme ecosystem. The good news is that there's no shortage of nascent Lisps and Lisp-wannabes, with many interesting new undertakings being launched month upon month.

There's one in particular, called Clojure (pronounced closure), that was unveiled recently and effortlessly stands out from the bunch. There's much to like about Clojure, but first and foremost, it follows a principle I'm very fond of: code talks, bullshit walks.
