The School of Informatics and Multimedia Technology at The University of North London now part of London Metropolitan University where I wrote a chess playing program in CLOS- the Common LISP Object System.

The Wonderful thing about LISP is:
LISP is a wondeful thing.
Complex procedural ideas
are expressed via simple strings.
Its clear semantics
and lack of pedantics
help make programs run Run RUN!
But the most wonderful thing about LISP is:
programming in it is fun,
programming in it is FUN!
