Meikel, thanks for the response.  I actually did read that thread in
the past but forgot about it.  So much to remember these days.  I
don't fully understand Rich's explanation yet, but I'm sure that's
because of my inexperience with Lisp.

Stuart, I have been using your PCL solutions as a way to check my
answers!  My CD database wasn't quite as elegant as yours, but I think
I did a good job for my limited Lisp/Clojure experience.  I also
bought your book "Programming Clojure".  Thanks for all your hard
work!  It's really helping me understand Clojure better.
