LOL! I bet he does as well...

I don't know. I try to tell people Haskell can be beautifully readable 
and concise. But there is no denying that Haskell can *also* be cryptic 
beyond belief! Even *I* am unable to figure out how the hell that works. 
Heck I only even know what it *does* because I got the computer to 
execute it for me... o_O
