In Haskell, because of the fine layers of abstraction that are possible, it pays to hone one's critical thinking skills.

Are you creating these posts by accident or what's the point of them? They are completely devoid of a message body.

KC: It's not customary to have any information in the subject that is not present in elaborated form in the message body. This sort of posting is more common on forums, where misguided individuals ask full questions in thread titles with empty bodies or "n/t" markings. It's in my eyes very bad form to try to inflict a foreign style onto a medium that has some deeply ingrained and _working_ guidelines (no top posting, replies in-line, body contains all information). -- Lars Viklund | zao@acc.umu.se

I think KC is simply unfamiliar with mail clients, and is putting what is intended to be the body in the subject line. -- brandon s allbery allbery.b@gmail.com wandering unix systems administrator (available) (412) 475-9364 vm/sms
