Right, but the problem is when you pass just one thing (or nothing). It may get converted, but the syntax of the call declares loudly "I am NOT passing an array". Atrocious language design, IMO, and it cost me several frustrating and wasted hours. A minor point but good for a cheat sheet. -Gregg -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
