I tried your suggestion and got the following output:
1) the first col didn't print, and the 3rd col overwrote the 2nd; this
is the main stumbling block
2) also, what if example.txt has 36 lines with the same format as
described.
FYI I'm using cgywin's version of perl.

The following script is to read 4 consecutive lines at a time from a
file, concatenate the first 3 lines
(with a ", "), and print the result to STDOUT. If the 3 lines aren't
concatenated they print correctly, however
if they are, the result is gibberish. Any suggestions. thx., EC.
