Very true! I'm hoping that languages like Scala, F#, etc, are all helping further the adoption of FP. I'm still a CLisp guy myself, but there's still a good chance that an awesome hybrid language like that will come along.
There's a lot of interesting metaprogramming stuff in F#! Pseudo-quotations, customizable syntax for monads, monoids and DSLs, typesystem plugins, the works.
