One more quick question about this, more of a Scala question really:
I've noticed both here and in the examples that there is a tendency to
use flatMap() instead of map().  I understand the differences between
the two, but am not sure why flatMap is preferred when there aren't
Lists involved.  Any reason?  Aren't the two interchangeable in this
case?

Thanks,
