One of the most entertaining things I've ever read about computer languages -- and so, so much of it exactly on the mark! Thanks.

I've solicited a few opinions and think I can summarize F#:

F#: OCaml's hot younger sister. She's got that girl-next-door look, so her charms aren't always apparent at first glance. Born of a French mother, her rich American stepfather financed her upbringing in England. While from the same gene pool as OCaml, she tends to be bright, but demure. Honest and true, she doesn't mind if you think of other languages while you are with her. In fact, she prefers it when you invite C# and VB.NET and anyone else packing IL for the night. She's built for action and will talk idioms and pervasives and demonstrate her flexibility until you wonder "How did she do that?", all while acting the lady. She handles "data" of any size with ease. Once you've spent the night in the sack with her, you'll want more. Unlike her friend Haskell, she won't change as you spend more time with her. And best of all, she won't ask for a commitment because she wants to stay available.
