Heh -- I must admit, learning Scala made me go back and brush up on ML, which I had learned years ago, but mostly forgotten. Doing so definitely made some of the `odd-feeling' Scala idioms feel much more obvious to me -- and gave me an excuse to reread Felleisen and Friedman's _The Little MLer_ as well. Now if only I could convince Scala to dump a heap image of the REPL when I finish playing around so I can pick up where I left off later. ;-) -- Jim Wise jw...@draga.com
