SeaFunc is Seattle. SeaFunc is functional. Functional language.
Functional PRO-gramming. We shall attempt to adjust your software, as
there is something wrong. You're in a C funk. Get out of your C funk.
Stumble on down to the best Belgian booze around.

For the uninitiated: "Functional Programming" (FP) treats computation
as the symbolic substitution of functions. Solving problems by making
changes to program state is often avoided. Common Lisp, Scheme,
Standard ML, OCaml, Haskell, and Clean are examples of FP languages.
The merits of the FP approach are highly debateable. Much more clear,
is that people who debate these issues are interesting (to other such
people :-) and provide useful networking contacts. SeaFunc aims to be
the premiere group in the Seattle region for advanced programming
language paradgims. If you think there must be more to life than C++,
Java, and C#, please join us!
