Just out of curiosity,
How come that infinite recursions under lazy-seq won't crash the
program, whilst regular infinite recursion would crash the program ?
What's the trick ?

For example why doesn't the following "repeatedly" never crash?

(defn repeatedly
  [f] (lazy-seq (cons (f) (repeatedly f))))

(last (repeatedly rand)) ;won't crash
