Hallo,

OK, so I'm not genuinely suggesting that you must possess or be studying for a PhD, to grok Haskell. But I find nothing alarming about the suggestion that one needs a fairly high level of intelligence, and some training, in order to be able to use Haskell effectively.
If I say I'm not stupid, would you believe me? I'm not saying that Visual Basic-level programmers should be able to understand haskell without a lot more studying and practice. What I'm saying is that almost every topic in Haskell Café evolves into a very high level discussion that may frighten some beginners, as it seems that without a PhD in programming languages and category theory, the language is not for you.
