My personal experience with learning just about anything computing related is *not* to use any kind of online forum to ask basic questions because people will just tell you you're an idiot and that you should RTFM. But, if you're interested in learning Haskell, for some mysterious reason Haskell people are actually quite friendly. So you'll get lots of help from the haskell-cafe mailing list (which has a policy of not abusing newbies) and and the #haskell IRC channel. I think everyone appreciates that there is a bit of a steep climb at the start of the Haskell learning curve and that everyone except the most masochistic needs a bit of encouragement at the beginning. -- Dan
