...and normal programmers care about the Fibonacci numbers because...?

Seriously, there are many, many programmers who don't even know what 
Fibonacci numbers *are*. And even I can't think of a useful purpose for 
them. (Unless you count Fibonacci codes?)

Quicksort is a well-used example, but several closely related sorting 
algorithms turn out to be fairly wordy in Haskell. It just so happens 
that [a very simple] quicksort is quite short.

I guess the question we've got to ask [hmm, we are repeating aren't we?] 
is who we're trying to attract.

Yeah, we should probably set up a seperate list for this stuff...
