Yeah, no two ways about, for average kinds of tasks, most commercial programmers just can't get it. I did some (I thought) quite neat Clojure code to merge some data ranges in about 27 lines (versus a house programmer's effort of 1000 lines of c#). My solution was not received well, even though it could have fairly easily been translated into c#. Sadly, if you get FP and the cool things it can do, it gets really painful to be somewhere people don't get it.
