Of course. Corporations are conservative to the point of being boneheaded. So to avoid risk, they all went on the internet and said, "Gee, I can't find any commercial Haskell applications on the Internet. There must be a reason for that, so I better use something else."
Or maybe they're more clever than you imagine, and they all have rooms full of Haskell programmers sworn to secrecy, trying to get a jump on the competition. Wouldn't it be funny if it turned out that the Python stuff at Google was just a side-show, and Haskell was really the big development language all along? (Not true, I'm sure - you could sort of stand a chance of starting a secret Python development project, but Haskell I doubt.) Donn
