That is very exciting. Will talk with my usergroup. I'd personally really love a discussion on what we've been up to in promoting Clojure locally, and what your thoughts are.
For instance, I'm no longer enthusiastic about coming up with a talk (which goes in one ear and out the other), but rather trying increasingly gonzo things at (say) NoSQL user groups. Like announcing that the attendees need to avert some sudden crisis by investigating data... which just happens to be in my laptop's Datomic instance. Or explore how my dinky fruit stand illegally collects customer data and mines it with Cascalog, because I dream of one day triumphing over Walmart. If nothing else, people hopefully find it an amusing evening, because Clojure is fun. (And it seems hard to really describe the experience of dynamism, with a static talk. Of course, we also do more conventional workshops.)
