And very slightly nicer syntax in clojure, at least to my eye (i'm talking about the vector arg list vs list, and i believe the use of a keyword as a function to pull a value from a map is a clojure-ism too. Both could be added to common lisp though - the vector arg list would be a short reader-macro and my lisp-foo isn't yet strong enough to say how to implement the keyword as a function thing but i'm 100% confident it can be done...)
