Uh, yeah, I believe that in some years, when I have sharpened my
Scheme skills, I'll be able to cut through metal, walls of concrete and
Java code :)

I haven't yet read More, I'm currently on my way through Continue and
progressing every night some little steps. So far it has been quite
enjoyable, since I have never used continuations (I'm coming from
languages that usually don't support continuations) I begin to
understand what one can do with them.

The only thing that has been non-intuitive was the contracts-stuff. I
tried playing with contracts, but haven't found a way to validate a
data structure against a contract in the REPL. So I have skipped that
part.

regards,
Marek
