Did you decide if you're doing the 4/19 dinner?

I intend to be there, see you then. Zach
Allow me to confirm that I'll attend, and to introduce myself. I've just moved to the area. Professionally I'm a statistician working at Novartis. Lisp-wise, I've been learning Lisp for the last several years; I think I've mastered the beginning level and have run into difficulty with system- and implementation-specific stuff. I look forward to meeting you all. Jim Garrett On 04/13/2012 11:14 AM, Faré wrote:

I plan on coming, and thank you for the invitation. -Kirby On Fri, Apr 13, 2012 at 11:14 AM, Faré <fahree@gmail.com> wrote:

If you're not among the fourteen people who have just received my confirmation email, then I haven't counted you for our dinner tomorrow, but it is still time to contact me. If I counted you but you can't come, it's also still time to tell me so I don't hold a seat in vain. See you tomorrow! Next month, a real Lisp Meeting at MIT, with Xach speaking about Quicklisp, on 2012-05-17. —♯ƒ • François-René ÐVB Rideau •Reflection&Cybernethics• http://fare.tunes.org Statists seek the solution to all human problems in arbitrary political power and bureaucracies above society.

I am with you in spirit. Wish I could come, but with trips (from to Williamsport PA) to DC on Tuesday, Philly yesterday, and Ohio tomorrow, I can't make a trip to Boston today, because I have an important meeting at work. Yesterday evening I met ESR for the first time, at a Philly JUG meeting. I have known RMS for 28 years, but I had never met ESR. Anyway, one of the things he said was that Lisp is still a language in his head that has never been displaced ("in its adhesive power to your brain") by any other language in terms of its power. Once, a long time ago, as a programmer capable in two languages he loved, APL and Lisp, he tried to write a Lisp interpreter in APL, and an APL interpreter in Lisp. He said, "You can guess which won." However he also said his current favorite language is Python, because when he writes programs in Python, six months later he can read the code and understand what it does, and that is most important to him.
