So what? I'm a computer scientist. I dig this stuff! Take a look at this stuff in your favorite flavor of the Blub programming language. Most of the same stuff that the Haskell community calls with strange names exists in the imperative/OO world. However, in the imperative/OO world these things tend to be ad-hoc constructions ("design patterns"?) that don't have any theoretical background and are difficult to reason about.
