Two points:
One, I'm not keeping an exact score of how often I mention Haskell vs. use it, but I can assure you that I use Haskell almost every single day.
Two, this constant anti-academia thing is really getting tiresome at this point... but just for the record: I've never worked in academia and didn't even encounter Haskell until I was out of university. My interest and praise for Haskell (and Ocaml) is entirely based on practical experience.
