Don't "disagree" without first trying it for yourself.

As several others have already mentioned... 

print ( 'The rain in $Spain' );
print ( 'The rain in "$Spain"' );

...returns the following strings, respectively:

The rain in $Spain
The rain in "$Spain"

This is on both Activestate Perl 5.6.1 on windows2000 and Perl on my
Mandrake Linux box.
