Of course this begs for a series of posts: clojure.py, clojure.js, clojure.pl, and clojure.arc. ;-)

  Without dragging out the whole "Ruby is an acceptable Lisp" thing, I feel that your choice of Ruby was appropriate, though. With the obvious exception of Arc, I feel that Ruby is far closer to Lisp than any of those other languages. Then again, maybe it's just because I'm reading Metaprogramming Ruby right now.

    Python offers most of the same abilities, though Pythonista culture seems to emphasize them less.

      Absolutely. The Python culture is explicitly anti-functional programming, even though the language doesn't have to be.
