Hi Alex, Understood, thanks for the quick reply! I recently came across Steve Yegge's rant on Clojure accessibility to newbies and was reflecting on how it could be improved. Thought it was a little thing but could be a nice addition to ease people in and give them a flavour for the language.
Totally understand that a home page is an important space and you don't want the kitchen sink thrown in peoples faces. :) Cheers!
