God save FP from the "mainstream". I know I sounds elitist but I honestly don't see how it would benefit FP to have lots of Java drones descending on it and taking it directionally into "simplifying database access" (for instance). The reason I like FP is because it is "pure" and I enjoy the difference in the thought-model when programming. Plus I usually can get things done much faster. I think this is why most people enjoy FP in one way or the other. Why ruin that in the quest for popularity?
