     Hahaha, cool!

"This tutorial aims to explain the concept of a warm, fuzzy thing and
its application to functional programming in a way that is easy to
understand and useful to beginning and intermediate Haskell
programmers. Familiarity with the Haskell language is assumed, but no
prior experience with warm, fuzzy things is required. The tutorial
covers a lot of material and the later sections require a thorough
understanding of the earlier material. Many code examples are provided
along the way to demonstrate warm, fuzzy programming. It is not
advisable to attempt to absorb all of the material in a single
reading."
