It looks strange to the human Lisp brain because we
have trained it is the way it is. I'm doing it that
way as well, but only because I want my Lisp to be
understood by others I don't start re-training it (the
brain) starting right now.

Is anyone really going to base parallelism on a bunch
of local variables? With let and let*? But yeah, if
that was actually so, it would be cool if not
(probably) that big a deal...
