Hi Liz-> Just saw this column on "Why I Like PLT Scheme". Excellent article.Does everyone here know about the weblog Lambda the Ultimate? There's a recent...
... I can second Jason's recommendation of LtU, and I think watching the SICP videos as part of the Wing Ding is a great idea. The value I get from the Wing...

In a WingDing kind-of way, we did agree. However, we are challenged by lack of a DVD Writer (so we could burn a DVD and play it on a regular TV). Also, the ...
