Well now you've been and gone and messed up the system... I'm afraid my puny non-fuzzy logic script only picks out the first node from each person in the thread. This is a fault. I know! I'm sorry! Anybody who has the time / skill to do better than this - let me have it, sibling:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use CGI qw(:standard :cgi-lib);
use LWP::Simple;
my $url = "http://perlmonks.org/index.pl?node_id=110166";
my $html = get $url or die "could not get $!";
my %names;
while ($html =~ s/=(\d*?)&lastnode_id=110166">[^<]*<\/A><BR> by <A HRE
+F="\/index\.pl\?node_id=\d*&lastnode_id=110166">(.*?)<\/A> on \w{3} \
+d{2}, \d{4} at \d{2}:\d{2}//s) {
$names{$2} = $1 unless $names{$2};
}
update: I notice that demerphq has done this already... as has crazyinsomniac.§ George Sherston

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
