Yes I can confirm this is 100% for sure- It's all completed except for post production stuff. Sorry there is still a wait ahead... I'm really happy with how it turned out, though.

Awesome, I've been waiting for this particular book to come out.

Also, I'm in NoVA area... Any word when/if fringedc will start up again? Any help needed? Not to distract you from your real work anyway.

My main problem with FringeDC is the lack of a steady meeting space... Let me know if you have any ideas.

Congratulations. Looking forward to it. Any chance you'll be releasing an e-book version also?

Dr. Barski,

I will be back in D.C. mid June. Is the monthly Fringe meetup still ongoing? Would love to meet.

Are there an excerpts from the book available? I didn't see any and was curious

What version(s) of Lisp does it use? On what platforms?

With a name like that, it really should have a cover that allows some nerdly variation on the Land O' Lakes boob trick.

Not a good time to sell Lisp. Too many interesting languages succeeding out there..

Succeeding? Yes. More interesting than Lisp? Definitely not.

More like lisp by another name. Clojure for instance.
