What is Functional Programming? Why it matters and what our meetup should be.

Topic: We will discuss the state of functional programming in brief across several languages. Also a discussion on the broader goals of functional programming and this meetup.
Speaker: Scott Murphy - I am taking over organizational duties from Jordan. I run a small software company that uses haskell and reason to do the majority of our programming tasks. I am very excited to help continue what has always been an excellent meetup and perhaps find ways we can broaden its scope to help it stay relevant to more users.

Food: Pizza provided (including vegetarian options). Please RSVP by 9am morning of so I know how much food to order.
