It's always good to do your research before making a statement on a topic you might not have a complete picture of:

There's been talk about integrating this functionality into Clojure. Incanter is an example of a project by someone who wanted to get primitive support for matrix math and has had quite a bit of success.

Wow, Incanter looks great. I've got to look into this more.

How do you know I don't do my research by making provocative statements on public fora?

"How do you know I don't do my research by making provocative statements on public fora?"

There is something to be said for that. I would not have thought to Google for "R-like interactive environment, built with Clojure and Java charting and numerics libraries." But now that I know it exists, I'm pretty excited about the possibilities.
