A Brief, Incomplete, and Mostly Wrong History of Programming Languages

Several folk have pointed me at this, since Haskell and myself get a mention. I'm delighted to learn that "a monad is a monoid in the category of endofunctors"---anyone know where I can find a good tutorial?

Sorry - I can point you to about twenty BAD tutorials, but no good ones.

Just kidding, #haskell, please don't ban me!
