Cool. Sounds like you might be the right person for the job then. I think giving a short intro to lisp and then showing off some of the things that makes lisp awesome is a good approach. It might be a challenge to squeeze into an hour or two. A lot of the awesome features of Lisp are hard to grok for people who are used to writing C# apps every day!

I've received several requests for an intro session, so demand is there.
If you're willing to present a Lisp 101 tutorial, I can supply the projector and take care of logistics regarding booking the room, etc.
If anyone else would like to present something appropriate, I'll make the same offer.
Meanwhile, I'll continue with topics mentioned on the wiki, and we'll adjust the schedule as we go.
