But how do they make the teflon stick to whatever it's applied to?
Is it SCIENCE or black magic?

Black magic.
The metal of the pan is scoured with sulphuric acid to make it rough. The teflon gets some purchase on that - but if you use metal rather than wooden spoons &c on a teflon pan, you'll scrape off the coating which, being non-stick, isn't all that well stuck.

That sounds like SCIENCE rather than black magic though.
Unless alchemy is considered black magic.

Continuing a discussion that I wasn't involved in...
Miranda looks a lot like python actually. List comprehensions, for example. I guess it was one of the languages that it was based on
I do like the syntax of [2...] for the lazy infinite list starting with 2, though.

mmm
haskell is a good language for that. i've got a little virtual universe (currently comprising of a solar system of doughnuts, but it's getting there) written using haskell and opengl bindings. you can define algorithmic sets and pick the ones that you're interested in (algorithmically defined bsps for instance). the concepts still make my head spin
