this looks like a variant of Python's

str.join(
    "\n",
    map(lambda foo: foo.description,
    filter(lambda foo: foo.description, mylist)))

Assuming it's type-safe and can perhaps reshuffle the where and select part
into something optimised there is definitely progress.

But still, Python's generator expressions are cool..

Haha, sure. But don't get stuck there. Learn something new from time to 
time; even a new language.


Best,
