These replies are getting super annoying.
I found the page completely readable, and the content interesting.

#9I'd love to see a canonical Clojure version since it would be very anti-OO, as opposed to this CLOS heavy version. I wonder if it would be natural to use multi-methods in the Clojure version too.
