> If we don’t get some big companies to take on this roll

- Cisco - has built their entire integrated security platform on Clojure

- Walmart Labs and Sam's club - have some big projects in Clojure

- Apple - something related to the payment system

- Netflix and Amazon, afaik they use Clojure as well

even NASA uses Clojure.

I think the language "is going somewhere"...

role* lol we made the same mistake. There is some adoption to be sure. But look at Google Trends for clojure.
What does Google Trends have to do with a programming language? PHP is trending, and Clojure is not, perhaps because Clojure gives you a lot fewer reasons to google stuff up?

I myself rarely use Google to find a solution to a problem, and certainly almost never have to google shit like: "how to open a file in Clojure"...
