-- something we can work through slowly (and show why we find it beautiful)
What confuses non-Haskellers
Since this tutorial is not yet written, we encourage you to note here the things which confuse non-Haskellers about the code code.

- super-super-concise stuff (things using liftM and liftM2)
- the difference between and
x <- foo
x = foo
