I did not have the intention of backhanding you or your friend. If my post had the appearance of doing so, I apologize.

I just wanted to point out the (for me at least) non obvious fact that the mind behind the theory of Clojure's persistent datastructures is working on Scala's collection library and that Scala's hash maps are already backed by hash tries - http://www.scala-lang.org/archives/downloads/distrib/files/n...

Good for Scala. When it's ready, people can use that. Until then, there are interim solutions.

And it's pretty neat to see a scala proponent call a scala project a "waste of time." Way to represent for your community, bro.
