Comment on Rama on Clojure's terms, and the magic of continuation-passing styleparent

Comments

Why is it called Rama? (there may be an FAQ, but I couldn't find it)

It's named after the Arthur C. Clarke book.

But do things in Rama the language come in threes?

Yes. The second Rama language will have a co-author and will lose the purity of the first language by adding many keywords each with a lot of emotional backstory.

Probably that future co-author will write all of it w/o any attempt to preserve the aesthetic of the original. Probably that future co-author should not just not write anything.
