Clojure is rad
Clojure is a variant of LISP developed for the Java Virtual Machine. It has
a much stronger emphasis on pure [functional programming](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_programming) than

state as it comes up.
This combination allows it to handle concurrent processing very simply,
and often automatically.
