Several of the answers that have been posted involve using reverse,
which has the disadvantage that the later you go in the stream, the
more of it you will need to hold in ram if you are processing and
discarding elements as you go.

  (define (going-up x lim)
    (cond ((= x lim) (s-cons x (going-down (- x 1) (+ lim 1))))
          (else (s-cons x (going-up (+ x 1) lim)))))
  (define (going-down x lim)
    (cond ((= x 0) (going-up 1 lim))
          (else (s-cons x (going-down (- x 1) lim)))))
  (define s (going-up 1 1))
