I don't see how it helps in my situation. ErrorT doesn't catch
exceptions, for example. Suppose I did make something like ErrorT that
catches exceptions and turn them into Lefts. Where would (>>=) get my
specific error constructor?

Maybe I need to make helper functions to use in runErrorT blocks that
turn exceptions, Bools, Maybes, etc., into Eithers? Confused.
