Thanks a lot for tracing through my code! So, as I understand it, my 
loop/recur is correct, but I was not using map in a correct way within the 
vector functions.

By the way, what is your (pst e*) line doing? Is that from a debugging 
library? I don't appear to have that in my clojure environment.
