Dear Chicago OLPC,<br> I've organized an event that might be of interest to
members of Chicago OLPC. It's a free workshop that's an
introduction to the Lisp programming language. Lisp is one of the
oldest but also most advanced programming languages around, and this
workshop is an attempt to show that it is alive and well today. We'll
walk through setup of a Lisp environment on attendees laptops, then
have presentations on basic and advanced language features as well as a
demo at the end. There will be food and drinks provided. There's more
information on the workshop at <a href="http://www.chicagolisp.org/wiki/doku.php?id=lispworkshop" target="_blank">http://www.chicagolisp.org/wiki/doku.php?id=lispworkshop</a>. <br>
It is being held by the Chicago Lisp User Group. We're a new
group, organized in February, but attendance at our meetings has been
growing (over 20 in May). We have meetings at floating locations in
Chicago on the 3rd Wednesday of the month at 7pm. The next meeting
will be June 20th. For more information on the group, see
<a href="http://www.chicagolisp.org/" target="_blank">http://www.chicagolisp.org/</a> and
