Wow. The essay they keep referring to throughout the exchange --Wadler's "Proposition and Types" [1]-- is hands down the best exposition of the Curry-Howard correspondence I've seen so far: deep but thoroughly readable (Howard wasn't just being nice!).
Even if you already know this stuff, I seriously recommend reading it (this one, or any of his other expository writings on this topic [2]). His perspective is formidable.
