Here's a Thanks to Tom for putting together a fascinating Lisp presentation on a moment's notice. I loved the subtitle, "Longevity Secrets of an Ancient Language", or something like that. I look forward to seeing his slides up on the JUG site.

An interesting self-contained study of Lisp is found in Grady Booch's "Object Oriented Design with Applications", FIRST edition. Booch works through five OO-design examples, each in a different language: Smalltalk, Object Pascal, C++, Ada, and the reason I mention it, a blackboard-based cryptanalysis system in CLOS, the Common Lisp Object System.

I was about to speculate that you can probably pick up Booch 1e on Amazon for a few bucks but I see the book has maintained its value -- $45.98 used! sabio.arizona.edu says "In library", however.

For the November 11 meeting, I believe we've got Andy Barton booked for a field report on iPhone development. Andy: Any advance comments about what you've got in mind?
