It seems to me that if a PHP developer sees the Haskell community as a resource for advice on programming language implementation, we should take this as a compliment to the Haskell community. Repaying that compliment with "your language sucks rocks" strikes me as unwise.
Not necessarily. It can be that they'd implement closures in PHP, make a dog's dinner of it (as they always do), and then we would be blamed for giving them bad advice.
Anyway, it seems that PR Stanley was forced to use PHP, no wonder he's a little mad at it.
Paul: How did you know? :-) You know, the funny thing is that all these so-called civilised people can find time and energy to have a go at me but can't be bothered to help the chap with the original query.
