which basically boiled down to an impression drawn from a conference where a speaker warned against using macros. I fully accept Yegge doesn't dig clojure, and perhaps he owes nobody any further explanation, but given his previous visibility as a champion of lisp and all the cool stuff happening in clojure / clojurescript, it just doesn't add up; his critiques are incomplete in that they fail to acknowledge the positives in the language.
