Not really...
Remember <- is part of the do notation. You use it within monads when using
do, and never outside of them :) Well... list comps as well, but it's much
of a muchness.

i'm using them right i think because it works, but my understanding is fuzzy.
it seems <- is used when you do things like load a file or get arguments from outside or if you are return something from a function
these seem to take the form of something other than an internal type like Int or String and have to be 'massaged' into use with things like show or fromSql etc
the = is used with let and seems to work for any assignments that are internal.
are these assessments correct?
