How would you implement the Hofstadter Male and Female sequences  
*elegantly* in Clojure? Here's a starting point:

(declare h-male h-female)
(defn h-male [n]
   (if (= n 0)
     0
     (- n (h-female (h-male (dec n))))))

(defn h-female [n]              
   (if (= n 0)
     1
     (- n (h-male (h-female (dec n))))))
(def h-male (memoize h-male))
(def h-female (memoize h-female))

(def h-male-seq (map h-male (iterate inc 0)))
(def h-female-seq (map h-female (iterate inc 0)))
