Every once in a while, I like to sit with a cup of hot tea or coffee, in my bathrobe, in read about Clojure. Algorithms, ideas, data structures - it's so .... just...clean and well thought out. There's something really nice about LISPs, and it's drawing me into it as well. I still do C#/Javascript/Java/whatever in my day job, but LISP is just...sexy. And for those that hate parens - Emacs paredit. Nuff said.

>parens If you include the curly braces, I'm not sure C/C++ has fewer parens than Lisp does, to be honest. Not much fewer, anyways.

  It's the pre-fix parenthesis for scope that is the problem, I think. function {} is more familiar mentally than (function).
