Subject: Announce: BOTHTON - Boston Lisp Announcements Email List
Date:
Message-ID: <qir7h21x3h.fsf@neilvandyke.org>
If you're in the Boston area, please join the Bothton email list
using the Web page: http://www.bothton.org/
Blurb from that page:
The Bothton email list is a low-traffic email list for announcements
of particular interest to Lisp users in the Boston (Massachusetts,
USA) area. By "Lisp" here, we mostly mean Common Lisp and Scheme.
The email list is expected to have 0 to 3 posts per week. Bothton
is a complement to the newsgroups and school-specific email lists,
intended to reliably reach the largest number of Boston Lisp users.
Relevant topics of Bothton announcements include:
* Upcoming talk, workshop, or conference on Lisp or topic
generally considered very relevant. (For example, a workshop
in Cambridge on dynamic languages would very likely be
relevant, but a talk on Python would very likely not.)
* Available job or startup opportunity for Lisp users in the
Boston area.
* Social get-together of Lisp users in the Boston area.
Under no circumstances are discussion or commentary posts relevant.
This restriction is intended to avoid scaring away traffic-averse
local Lisp users. Discussion posts might be very relevant on the
comp.lang.lisp or comp.lang.scheme newsgroup, however.
No, you're getting them confused with Mon Calamari.

Calamari?!! I forgot how utterly ridiculous some of the Star Wars
"foreign languages" can be. The Ewoks' song of triumph at the end of
Return of the Jedi sounds like "I Love New York" and contains [I have a
printed version] the Ewokese words "peechy keene".
Oh yeah, gotta stay on topic.

Output: episode number in the title, as string."

"Yawn.")

You know, I've had a similar thought; except if I were to do it
it would be the "Than Franthithco Lithp Utherth Thothiety."
