After tinkering with programming for a while i am trying to teach myself
a real language in a more serious way now, including finally facing that
i need to learn OO concepts.  But all the docs i have found (so far) on
CLOS seem to assume that you already have a very solid grasp on OO
programming from some other language.  Does anyone know of source that
teaches OO from the ground up using CLOS?  (Or am i going to have to
learn C++, then OO, then CLOS?--ha ha, only kidding... i hope....)

Thanks for any suggestions.

Nick Levine has excellent intro to CLOS:
http://cl-cookbook.sourceforge.net/clos-tutorial/index.html

For the most thorough intro check Sonya Keene Object Oriented
Programming in Common Lips.

I like

  http://eval.apply.googlepages.com/guide.html

and Sonya Keene's Object-Oriented Programming in Common Lisp.
