They are probably undefinately because the record seperator is being set
lexically inside of the loop (and thus won't apply to the outer while). Please
consider this code:
local $/ = "\n\n";

An important nitpick: that is a localized version of $/, not a lexical
version. See
http://perldoc.perl.org/functions/local.html
for more information.
Chas, does this mean as long as we don't call another sub from the block
we declare local, we should be good. Correct?
I like using local on some of these variables...... for some reason.
Most likely due to misleading name :-) Can't help myself.
