Excellent talk David. This is hitting a programming sweet spot that I've
wanted for a while. I haven't tried prolog, standard ml, haskell, etc. But
jquery was the first tool that clued me into a kind of pattern matching and
predicate dispatch:


$( ".classA .classB#containingId" ).doSomething();

$( "[ fubar=thing ]" ).doSomething();


But your tool seems to be more elaborate. Now, exploring the other
functional languages has jumped to near the top of my todo list. This
reminds me of a talk Reginald
Braithwaite<http://www.infoq.com/interviews/Rewrite-Reginald-Braithwaite>
gave
(around the 16m 20s mark), he actually hinted that he'd wanted to explore
something like this in Ruby. At the time, he was discussing his work on
Rewrite <https://github.com/raganwald/rewrite>. Love getting excited about
increased expressive power. Thanks for the insights :)


Cheers

Tim
