[Haskell-cafe] Non-technical Haskell question

[Keean Schupke]

Some of the features they are adding to c# are pretty cool. Nothing you 
can't
do in Haskell, but it does have the advantage of familiar syntax. On the 
other hand
they say it is easier to teach functional programming to people who have
never programmed before.

I was of course thinking of how to persuade someone to adopt Haskell as yet
another programming language.
