It was mentioned by Chouser on the IRC that having the keyword args
differ from the functions via an English-specific transformation would
be confusing and error-prone, and I've agreed, so the syntax is now
(rev 1011):
(ns foo
(:require [clojure.parallel :as par])
(:use clojure.inspector)
(:import (java.util Date Timer Random)
(java.sql Connection Statement)))
