Stuart Sierra of LispNYC has agreed to come down to give a Clojure talk for Philly Lambda.  As usual, the meeting will be held at Algorithmics.  Please RSVP if you plan to attend.

As for the topic, it will be super secret for now :)  The only hint I can give right now is that it will not be the same presentation he gave last month to LispNYC.

Below is a description of Clojure and Stuart Sierra:

Clojure is a new Lisp dialect developed by Rich Hickey.  Clojure takes lessons from the best of Common Lisp and Scheme, and adds new abstractions, a rich set of immutable data structures, software transactional memory, and tools for managing mutable state in a multithreaded environment.  Clojure is compiled on-the-fly to Java bytecode, and offers direct and convenient access to any Java library.

Stuart Sierra has contributed many modules to Clojure's standard library, including a testing framework, a code walker, and a macro-based template processor.
