Try:

Philip Wadler. An angry half dozen. SIGPLAN Notices 33(2):25--30,
February 1998. [NB.
http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/article/wadler98angry.html ]

Also look for the schedules for the 2007 and 2006 CUFP (Commercial
Users of Functional Programming) workshops. The schedules have links
to slides from talks by people using FP in industry.

Cheers,
Tim
