BTW, for fun, see this recent job for a Haskell expert in India - http://www.simplyhired.co.in/job-id/jh4gosrgqr/haskell-exper... -- turns out (I asked) they're developing tools to translate COBOL into more modern languages, since you can't hire COBOL programmers anymore.

Of course, the translation tool is in Haskell. :}
