Lalit Pant ( [EMAIL PROTECTED] ) (alternatively, [EMAIL PROTECTED] ) wrote an article 
in the May 2000 issue of _Java Report_ entitled "Developing Intelligent Systems With 
Java and Prolog" that described a Prolog implementation of the A-star search 
algorithm.  Lalit stated that Prolog was useful for algorithm prototyping.

Perhaps Lalit Pant and Simon Peyton Jones could collaborate together on an article, 
perhaps overseen by Paul Hudak, on prototyping search algorithms in Haskell, also for 
_The Java Report?_  If this article then had a high readership, maybe the article's 
success could then justify publication of an O'Reilly _Haskell in a Nutshell_ book?

P. S. (Hi Doug Fields.  I didn't know that you were reading this mailing list.  I 
guess that I should also greet Professor Paul Hudak:  Hello, Professor Hudak.  Sorry 
about Collectively Speaking.  How's jazz in general?)
