I love Haskell and spend a lot of time learning it, but I've gotten by just fine without his resources. The fact is that a lot of far more tolerant and far less self-aggrandizing folks have been patiently teaching Haskell for a long time. Check out #haskell (or #nothaskell, lots of nice folks there too) and ask for help if you need it.

For example, Orson Scott Card, the author of Ender's Game has some pretty homophobic and bigoted views. However, that does not take away from the fact that his books are enjoyable.
