So, I'm in seattle, but from chicago... I'd go to a meeting in the city if I
were in town.

I live in the western suburbs and would try to make it to a meeting  
if one were to be held.  Lately I have not had much opportunity to  
work with Lisp but I would like to get into it again.

I live in the northwest suburbs.  I used to keep talking to the list in
hopes of a meeting, but gave up.

I'm interested in getting together, if you are.  We just need a place and a
time.

I think i joined the list after the olive garden meeting.  (either that or
i've been missing out :)

I like olive garden.  Was that in schaumberg?  What's the address?

I am a couple of hours south of Chicago, in the Champaign-Urbana area.
Anyone else down here in the sticks?

Hello,

After seeing all the recent fun had by lispvan, I decided to join this
list.  Are there any upcoming meetings or events in the works?
As a born-again Lisper, I would be curious to see what is going on in the
Lisp world.

Thanks,
Peter

Haven't you looked in the archives?  We don't have fun here in Chicago.

Jesse,

SISC looks really cool.  I've been getting into Scheme lately using Kawa,
and the syntax is much cleaner than that of Lisp.

Cheers,
Peter
