title: Await a System.Threading.Task and ignore the result?
body: <p>I'm trying to learn F# by diving straight in and attempting to convert some C# code to it. One of the things I'm rewriting is part of an async method, which awaits a call to HttpClient's GetAsync without using the result. That is:</p>
  
  <pre><code>await httpClient.GetAsync("http://www.example.com");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Below is the only thing I've tried which doesn't get the red squigglies. While I assume it's valid, it does create a variable which I'd probably want to avoid.</p>
  
  <pre><code>let! ignoreme = Async.AwaitTask &lt;| httpClient.GetAsync("http://www.example.com")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How should this be done?</p>
