Lang, To Answer Your Question,
The make-test-case macro has three forms to construct a test-case. The name is a string that is reported if the test-case fails. The action in an expression that is evaluated to determine test success or failure. The optional setup and teardown are expressions that are run before and after the action respectively. They are useful for managing state required by a test. If is important to note that action, setup and teardown are all expressions that are wrapped in a lambda form by the macro. If multiple expressions are needed for any of the parts they must be wrapped in an explicit begin.
(make-test-suite name test …)
The make-test-suite macro constructs a test-suite with the given name and tests.
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate — we can not consecrate — we can not hallow — this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us — that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion — that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain — that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

Yeah this is pretty important... like the Hindenburg crash, only not as funny
We stand, my young friends, on the apex, the cusp, the nadir, the verge, the threnody, the scallop, the limestone, the hotentot, the wombat, the mortgage, the silicone, of a new era, the likes of which no previous generation has been blissfully lucky to see come to fruition.
Remember.. “Whaazzzzaaaaaaaaaapp!!” ? Remember “How do you do? It’s a pleasure to meet you” ? These are greetings of sorts, exchanged between friendly people meeting each other for the first time, or alternately, when friends and acquaintences meet again and inquire upon each others’ good fortune.
Well, I have a new one. This new greeting can be used, should be used, in these contexts, and any other meeting between people. Please note the date and time this blog was composed, and also the date and time you encountered it, for little else this quarter-century shall impact your life- nor fulfill it- quite so completly. I humbly give you…
“You owe me twenty-five bucks!”
This fond exchange will be on the lips of all speaking people before the year 2006 has expired. You will hear it, and use it, for all manner of greeting, verbal exchange, well-wishing and condolence.
“Hey friend, you own me twenty-five bucks!” “No, you owe ME twenty-five bucks!” {they hug, high-five, shake hands, etc}
So you see children, it is not with frivolity or satire that I tell you, warn you: this is the changing of the times. The old “hello” is gone for good. The new “You owe me 25 bucks!” is here, shining in the new morning sun, trembling with anticipation.

Well, shit.
Okay, so I did what was asked of me and closed comments. I did it in the most expedient way: by updating the database directly. Then I rebuilt the pages. Now none of the comments are showing any more. They’re still there, but the templates that build the pages aren’t handling it correctly.
So I’ll fix it this weekend.
Unless I just shut the site down.

david wouldya please?
is there some automated way to close down comments on all my posts that are older than a month or something? the spam reports are killing me.
i’m about to delete every post i’ve ever made. not that it would be any great loss, either, i guess.
