What is a good source (website) to learn common lisp?

I have a project in computer science to learn a new language and make a small program with it, I chose common lisp. I would like to know some sites where I can learn quick and easily.

    Peter Seibel's book is a solid tutorial: _Practical Common Lisp_

    It's also available online: http://www.gigamonkeys.com/book/

    It's well worth getting a copy of Paul Graham's book, _ANSI Common Lisp_ (1995). Most Lisp programmers I know who began in the last decade learned while using both books together.

    Other resources that I've used when returning to CL several years ago are linked here: http://play.org/links/lisp-intro

    And of course, there's news:comp.lang.lisp and #lisp (http://www.cliki.net/IRC) for immediate questions to potentially get answered quickly.
