+  <abstract> 
+
+  <p>In 1976, a University of California Berkeley student by the name of
+  Bill Joy got sick of his text editor, ex.  So he hacked it such that
+  he could read his document as he wrote it.  The result was "vi", which
+  stands for VIsual editor.   Today, it is shipped with every modern
+  Unix system, due to its global influence.</p>
+
+  <p>In this talk, you will learn  how to use vi to edit documents
+  quickly and efficiently.  At the end, you should be able to:</p>
+
+  <ul>
+  <li>Navigate and search through documents</li>
+  <li>Cut, copy, and paste across documents</li>
+  <li>Search and replace regular expressions</li>
+  </ul>
+
+  <p>If you do not have a Math computer account, don't panic; one will be lent
+  to you for the duration of this class.</p>
