I don't like the use of the word monad in the sentence "The bind operator, >>=, makes a "bigger" monad out of a monad m and a function f (which yields a monad when applied to a value)." (I think all his other uses of the word are correct, but I didn't check carefully.) People love doing this sort of thing and it always annoys me, a typical example is people calling individual blog posts "blogs", or indivdual podcast episodes "podcasts".
