Oh, what is this world coming to when you can't count on laziness to
be lazy. ;)  I should probably stop reading about Haskell and their
lazy way of doing things.

As a relatively naive observation, in R, it seems like argument
recycling kind of breaks the power of lazy evaluation.

Thanks for the suggestion of list.files()
