Mmm, the man has a point...

I guess it's kinda hard to explain in just a few words why Haskell is 
actually so damn cool. I mean, you can write "it enables you to write 
less code". (Ever heard that one before?) Or you could say "it makes 
your programs more reliable" (er, yes, I believe we've heard that all 
before too). Or even, "it enables you to easily harness multicore 
computing" (except that it isn't true - yet). Hmm... so we seem to have 
a choice between verbose statements that nobody is going to read, or 
hopeful promises of "better" which we can't substansiate. Oh dear...
