[Chicago] ChiPy July Meeting

[Brian Ray]

As it turns out, this will be the best user group meeting ever!  Best Ever,
Anywhere, and you do not even need to pay admission or listen to Ads by
desperate head hunters looking for coders who code will not crash a foreign
market exchange because they improperly cast a void pointer. Best Ever,
Gang, get it!  Spread the word and join the peaceful Python fanatics for fun
and education in a nicely Air Conditioned Room, Color HD Display, Free WIFI,
HD surround sound, power windows, and  convenient down town location right
next to the Sear.. I mean Willis Tower!  Free admission. Just bring your
open ears and mind, folks!

When: 7 PM Thursday July 8, 2010
Where: ITA | TechNexus  200 S. Wacker Drive, 15th Floor Chicago, IL 60606

be that way. This talk will cover why Python is slow, and what two of

About the group
---------------
ChiPy is made up of people of all levels of programming and Python
knowledge. At every meeting we have had both beginning programmers,
people who are just starting to use Python, as well as experienced
Python programmers. Don't be intimidated about coming to a meeting.

Note that ChiPy is not a formal organization. We collect no dues,
elect no officers, and keep no roster. Signing up for the mailing list
carries no obligation. Nor does showing up at the meetings. Nor, at
least so far, does anything else we have done, although we always
appreciate it when our presenters show up. (They usually do!)
