Try this abstract (and url to the whole paper):

OCaml is a great language, really taught me a lot. I thought that "tuples" were
the famous flowers from Holland - but that is a LIE!

And I'll warn you right now - DON'T BUY TUPLE BULBS!! Or even tuple futures.

Some fancy french joint is developing OCaml, so brush up on your French, Gerd.
Don't ask them "WTF?" too often, either, about OCaml. I guess they're busy
planting more "tuples", dividing up the bulbs, etc. Must be hard work!

Great language, as far as I can understand it - but how it's supposed to make my
garden grow more "tuples" is a complete mystery to me. :)

I'll have to stick with C for programming. Only language I ever took a class in
besides BASIC, and I'm not doing a chess program in BASIC.


>hmm...
Oh yeah! You'll be saying that a LOT with OCaml. You betcha!
