Hi all, Next time someone asks you "What is a Monad?", just point them at this page: http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/10447b.htm My favourite quote is: "in the letters of the Christian Platonist Synesius, God is described as the Monad of Monads." For those who can't be bothered looking, the page is part of a Catholic Encyclopedia, and it describes in much detail some rather interesting aspects of the word Monad that I didn't know before. Its even quite insightful. Cheers, Bernie PS Should rename unsafePerformIO to sinfulPerformIO?
