[Haskell-cafe] *GROUP HUG*

[Juan Daugherty]

Every computing culture is different.
Being in the habit of asking questions you should be able to answer yourself
is not a good idea. Why did you ask a question which you yourself characterize
as "ignorant"? Although Haskell comm. is necessarily welcoming due to
the learning curve and lack of popular adoption there are limits here too.
