From: Arran ======= It is obvious: The only program that parses Perl is perl, and to really be Perl you also have to be perl.

If builders built buildings the way programmers wrote programs, then the first woodpecker to come along would destroy civilization. We are the out casts of society, but when they relise its the out casts that create society, we will fall. Everything I know about thermal expansion I learnt from Neon Genesis Evangelion! And there's always those days where you start sending out emails with semicolons at the end of the sentences. Yesterday I even caught myself writing code on a piece of napkin on my lunch. I'm afraid the day will finally come where I start trying to rearrange all of my paragraphs into a single sentence.
