As a former map addict, I was shown the error of my ways on
#[EMAIL PROTECTED] when it was pointed out to me that map
returns a value. If you're not going to use that value, just use
for[each].

This way the code is easier to read and the extra overhead of the return
value [minute as it is] is avoided.
