That's really neat. It looks like you've already done in Egg a lot of 
the stuff I was going to start going through as well, for example, 
during the last week I'd been thinking about what you have as fuse and 
unfuse. I'd also been thinking about generic lazy and memoize higher

What is the status of Egg?
