This is actually a _very_ important concept in programming.  If you can't do
recursion that really limits what you can do.  Scheme really helped me with
that, now it's so natural I don't even think about it, just like writing any
other method.

Ohhh, anonymous methods are fun.  I wish a few more languages had them.
