Paul,<br><br>&gt; This page (<a href="http://www.npdbd.umn.edu/deliver/elevator.html">http://www.npdbd.umn.edu/deliver/elevator.html</a>) has a template for an &quot;elevator pitch&quot;.<br>&gt; I thought I&#39;d try instantiating it for Haskell.
<br>&gt; For software developers who need to produce highly reliable software at minimum cost...<br><br>Looks like a good pitch for developers.&nbsp; Here&#39;s my attempt for management:<br><br>For software project leaders looking to decrease the risk of software construction in large componentized systems.&nbsp; 
<span class="e" id="q_114d2bb3cc79bd2a_1">Haskell
is a programming language where software components can be built safely
and predictably from existing components without increasing the
system&#39;s overall complexity.</span>&nbsp; Unlike Java or C, Haskell functions are called &#39;safe&#39; because each function either explicitly states its side effects or is <span class="e" id="q_114d2bb3cc79bd2a_1">guaranteed to have none.
