In the spirit of my previous email on haikus (which turned out fairly
well), I'd like to issue a RFK (Request For Koans) to everyone!

You can find what I've accumulated already on
http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Koans . There are a few there, but half
of them are mine. There is, however, a fairly complete external links
section covering not just vaguely-Haskellish koans, but also FP and
programming in general.

So feel free to chip in with any koans or links to koans, if you know
of any. I'm sure I must've missed a few just for #haskell alone.

Example:
gwern> a young novice spoke to #haskell, asking to be taught about the
ways of the Maybe monad.
'What have you brought me to see?' asked the #haskeller.
'Nothing', replied the noob.
'Then take it away!'"
