I really like Clojure, but as a complete n00b on Lisp languages, it is
frustrating that I many times have to hunt high and low for
documentation on basic stuff.

Recently I saw a code snippet that showed that reduce takes an
optional initial value, something I didn't know. When I see something
new, I usually go back to the documentation or the book I might be
reading to see if there is something more to learn about the current
function, and to familiarize myself with the documentation.

Well, to my surprise and frustration, I haven't found any place which
documents that reduce takes an optional initial value.

The first impression of the Clojure home page was a nice ordered set
of pages of documentation, but I soon realized that listing all the
functions with some textual explanation, just doesn't cut it. I
usually end up googling for more conrete information that shows me how
to actually use the functions.

Please, dear very good Clojure creators, if you don't want Clojure to
be another language for the specially initiated, good examples will
take Clojure to the next level.

People are just like Clojure, lazy.
