I thought the only connection with cigarettes was the name. I was fully convinced that what made that camel a really cool dude were first class functions and polymorphic type inference. Only now have I discovered that Joe Camel is a cartoon character used by a tobacco corporation to publicize its products. Given this, I ask forgiveness of DdR for having criticized his standpoint on the matter.
