I’ll always have a soft spot for Clojure. It’s the only Lisp I’ve been paid to write applications in. Naturally I’ve written plenty of Elisp. I also use SBCL for personal scripts and data exploration, but that’s always been in support of delivering a solution in some other language.

While, as is to be expected, I don’t agree with every decision made for Clojure, I find it to be an entirely pleasant Lisp to work with.

So, kudos to Mr. Hickey, and thanks for sneaking Lisp back into corporate America!
