think you kind of missed what I was saying, I was the one recommending, having already done a bunch of functional programming, and thought SICP was a nice intro ( at the time ) to functional programming. But they didn't quite get it and their code was a weird mish mash of OO and weird uses of recursion with badly thought out (stateful ) functions.
