Then I wouldn't stress macros at all. Just mention them later on -
"Oh! And btw: this is a macro thingy." Clojure's concurrency features,
the functional style, the abstractions, the consistency, rapid REPL
development cycle - all this is what makes Clojure Clojure. Macros are
also part of that, but a small and - IMHO - an overrated one. They
have their place - and I don't want to miss them - but they are not
one of the main selling point for me.

Sincerely
Meikel
