Solution in Common Lisp (SBCL 2.0.3) (judge verdict: Accepted)

(defun solve (s &optional flag ans)
  (cond
    ((null s) (concatenate 'string (reverse ans)))
    ((null flag) (solve (rest s) t (cons (first s) ans)))
    (t           (solve (rest s) nil ans))))

(let ((s (concatenate 'list (read-line))))
     (princ (solve s)))
