If anyone wants to use puns this time next year, I recommend someone proposes them for Haskell Prime - they have 2 implementations, are well established, theoretically sound and seem to have a lot more people who want them than I ever knew! Yet despite this, I never even knew they existed, and there are quite a few places I could have used them, now I know what they are. Thanks Neil
