The first step is accepting that you have an addiction (to Haskell).

You're making excellent progress. Thanks. I am trying to draft a 12-step program to get me back down. Hi, my name is <your-name> and I am an Haskel-holic. It's been <time-period-here> since my last functional programming session...

Does anybody know any way at all that I can de-program my mind to go back to working with OO, specifically PHP, ever again? Consider it an exercise in cognitive dissonance. That's a fascinating subject and particularly relevant: I am 're-writing' some code at the moment to 'comply' (you have ten seconds to put down your weapon) with local coding standards regarding variable naming for PHP code and hating every second of it. I mean, what's point of that for PHP (no language war intended). I am trying to introduce Erlang here, gently!

Have a good day everybody. :) Sean PS: Don't press the red button.
