[LispSea] update

[Ira Kalet]

Daniel,

Here is a first pass on a summary - feel free to suggest changes.

"Lisp and Symbolic Programming From the Beginning"

This session will introduce the basic ideas that make Lisp a uniquely 
powerful programming language, illustrated with examples from biomedical 
applications, including molecular biology, drug interactions and cancer 
treatment.  If time allows, we will introduce functional programming, 
CLOS, the Meta-Object Protocol and macros.  If there is interest but 
insufficient time, a second session is possible.

The session is for both experienced Lispers and those new to Lisp.

Projector with 1024x768 is just fine.  I will bring my own laptop.

I'm happy to talk to anyone who comes and listens.

Ira
