  You are suggesting that newcomers to Haskell should not care about what a monad is. I'm pointing out that tutorials like "Learn you a Haskell" are trying to explain monads before even getting to "Hello World".

    Well then, as you already know I agree with you that this is absurd! > Yet for some reason newcomers (reputedly) want to know what a monad is before trying to use one! I agree with you: they should go ahead and use one and not worry about what it is!
