How close are we to a recommended programming style for Clojure? When
there is more than one way to do something, should I emulate the style
in core.clj?

The situation that brought this up: I notice that in core.clj, the
default clause for a cond is usually marked with :else. This seems
like a pun to me, and that true would be more straightforward. On the
other hand, if :else is the accepted idiom, I don't want to cause
people to hiccup when reading my code (which probably has a Common
Lisp accent in other ways anyway).

I'm reluctant to even bring this up, as some people get really touchy
about the idea conforming to a style, but since LIsp is such a dense
language, I don't want to introduce confusion in readers by being
needlessly idiosyncratic.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
  Kevin
