[Haskell] more haskell in the news (for nerds)

(please followup-to haskell-cafe)

This slashdot story mentions Haskell being used to solve puzzles:

I did a quick search on slashdot to discover that Haskell has been in
the topic of a slashdot story 4 times in the last 10 months (since march
2003). 5 times if you count a review of "Purely Functional Data
Structures".

In the year before that, it was mentioned only once in passing.  In
2001, it was the topic once, and mentioned once in passing.

In 2000 there were several stories on functional programming that
mentioned Haskell.

Any way you look at it, Haskell has gotten a lot more attention on
Slashdot lately than it has since the beginning of the archives.  Here's
a link to the stories:
