Me too. What I like about Clojure (and other JVM languages) is that I can choose how much I want to take part in the JVM ecosystem. There is usually a spectrum from pure-clojure <---> clojure-wrapping-java <--> pure java and I get to choose where on that spectrum I want to or need to be based on the needs of my project.

Since the Java ecosystem is huge, this gives me a lot of confidence that most of my needs will be met by existing tools.
