Want to see something clever? Here's a live demonstration of Clojurescript using the new CSP library in Clojure.I'd also like to specifically request lisp and its variants
is it going the way of Fortran?
Common Lisp is probably seeing decline, but the Clojure dialect is relatively new and trending. Between Clojure and Clojurescript, you can write your web front- and back-end in a single functional language. Plus running on the JVM makes it highly portable.
