Personally, I try to avoid ever using list comprehensions.

Me too. Successfully, I have to add.

But every now and then I discover an expression which is apparently not

Until I learned the trick of using lists as monads, I was utterly perplexed as to how to get a Cartesian product - or why there's no library function to do this!

Thanks to the chapter on Logic Combinators, I've learned a trick or two about monadic list trickery... muhuhuhuhu!
