[Haskell-cafe] lecture notes for Finally Tagless - benefit of explicit fix combinator

[Günther Schmidt]

Hi Stephen,

I'm glad I asked. This sure sounds more interesting than I had 
anticipated. Is this an old hat for your off-the-shelf haskeller or 
something only found in the more seasoned haskellers tool box?

I think it's pretty much the first time I encounter it.
