Some people are just very much drawn to ML and/or lisp. For some people it just maps in a very nice way to how you imagine a solution to a problem.

I don't think it is much more than in other languages, it is just that there is a culture within those communities that promotes: "hey wow, I just did something cool. Look".

As a lisp guy I stare in envy at the cool things people do in ML.
