Alan,

Absolutely no need to apologize! :) I would hardly consider myself an expert 
either, I’m basing my understanding on the experiences I’ve had at my day job 
and the large body of developing articles and blogposts related to the language 
that seem to pop up at a near-constant rate on your favorite programming news 
aggregator.

If people are doing FP with Go somewhere, that’s awesome and I would love to 
see it. My suspicion is it’s difficult and generally not what you “want” to be 
doing with the language. Go’s popularity is a big disappoint for me personally, 
but again your experience may differ.
