Taking the ARC challenge

[carlgundel]

Paul Graham, a very famous Lisp programmer who is well known for his continuations based web framework has invented a language called ARC (a version of Lisp). He came up with a challenge to see how others would implement a trivial web program in their favorite language. Here's the ARC program:

(defop said req
(aform [w/link (pr "you said: " (arg _ "foo"))
(pr "click here")]
(input "foo")
(submit)))

Now tell me which language you'd rather develop web apps in.
