Hi Don

Don't worry, I was aware of that.  I'm waiting with baited breath for  
them to finish it (I mentioned it in an earlier email - I'm hoping it  
will be the Haskell equivalent of Programming Ruby and open the  
language up to a whole new audience).  I will read Hutton's book now  
I've got it.  Half of me wants to wait for the dead tree version of  
RWH before I start it though, I like flicking through books and having  
them open while I work through examples and exercises.  And you can  
read them in bed, and in the bath...

Took me most of an afternoon just to print YAHT!

Cheers,
Ashley
