Hehe,

Whenever mention of 'implicits considered dangerous' is brought 
up in a scala context I always think back to this small piece of 
British comedy gold.

...think you need to have seen the original robocop (1987) to 
fully appreciate the reference but I think it sums up perfectly 
my (and many others'!) experiences with the magical world of 
implicits in scala :-)

Cheers,

A.
