Thanks! I've heard about the authors. Just out of curiosity, how does Learn You a Haskell for Great Good stack up against other resources? (heard a great deal about it here and there.)
I would certainly try it but it works kind of the same as gotour: if you want a worked example of a characteristic of the language for a specific thing it's great, if you are trying to get your hands around the language by working through it 'cover to cover' in a sense I felt like I wasn't achieving the level of understanding I hoped for.
