I'm sorry. My mistake. Thank you for pointing that out.

I should say that short-circuit evaluation is a special case of lazy 
evaluation. I'll quote from the Wikipedia article for "Short-circuit evaluation":
"In languages that use lazy evaluation by default (like Haskell), all functions 
are effectively "short-circuit", and special short-circuit operators are 
unnecessary."
