<P><FONT SIZE=2>Thanks Ryan, I'm slowly becoming aware of the effects of Monomorphism. I'll look<BR>
again at Neil Mitchell's blog post.<BR>
<BR>
I guess it's the same thing when I try:<BR>
<BR>
> let a = 1<BR>
> a + 1.0<BR>
<BR>
I'm taking the "mono" as a clue that the type inferencing will complete after<BR>
each ghci carriage return; once only. In this example when "a" is set, it is<BR>
to an Integer. One might imagine ghci could wait until I use "a" somewhere, but<BR>
that's not how things are.</FONT>
