It is best to think of haskell primitives as something completely new,
they reuse some naming conventions from OO programming, but that
doesn't
mean they suffer from the same limitations. It took me a few trys to
wrap my brain around it. I liken learning haskell to tipping over a
vending machine. you can't just push it, you gotta rock it back and
forth a few times building up momentum until bam! suddenly the
flash of
insight hits and it all makes sense.
Do you have a lot of personal experience attaining zen-like insight
by tipping over vending machines? I'll have to try that some time ;-)

Thanks for making me laugh this morning.
