Although we don't use Haskell (it's Python on the inside) the underlying engine
is Functional Reactive Programming. We use a 3-D game engine to explore more
than just programming - we cover a lot of math and physics.
Especially if SPJ decides to grow a beard. Unfortunately Paul is now clean
shaven so maybe Haskell is in trouble.
