You're referring to 'odd' streams here?  IIRC the stream SRFI
implements 'even' streams, which don't have this problem.  (I do think
Lazy Scheme is pretty nifty, and has other advantages -- just wanted
to clear up this point.)

[This, I think, is the paper that discusses odd and even streams:

Well worth reading for anyone starting to use streams.]
