Teaching non-programmers Perl in an hour is an unrealistic goal. You'd be far better off in showing them the benefits of Perl, of trying to inspire them to learn more on their own, and of introducing them to some Perl resources. A one-hour crash course is more likely to scare off than attract. If you can spark their desire for knowledge, you'll have done far more good. Wally Hartshorn
