I feel this way as well, specially because one of the teachers here tell all students that Haskell is the slowest thing ever by comparing Fibonacci sequence implementations between C and Haskell *using Hugs*.

We shall thus understand that a teacher who likes Fibonacci, is a representant of of the 100% of the human population. On the other hand, Microsoft Research who pays some developers of Haskell (whose names I have forgotten) doesn't count at all. Very interesting. Jerzy Karczmarczuk
