I have used Lisp since 1988.  The closest I've ever come to
attending a Lisp meeting or conference was the Feyerabend
Workshop in 2003.  (Thanks Pascal!)  The Gods have smiled
on me for I will be in northern California during this time
period and will be able to attend ILC2005.  Yippee!

(Sorry, I had to tell someone, and my wife is not particularly
into programming and my daughters only do game programming,
which of course requires C or C++.)
