[racket-dev] racket vs. scheme vs. clojure (as it appears to others)

Right now, we're already using JS to decide which of the 3 initial
code snippets to display.  So, why not start with using Noel's tool
for that, and go from there?  We already have a built-in group of
possibilities to measure, and we're already using JavaScript.

As an aside, I suspect that non-JavaScript-browsers are more popular
among people who complain to Eli than than among the general visitor
population.  :)
