This message is automatically sent to every new poster to perlmonks. You should only receive it once. My apologies if the auto-responder contacts you twice. This is our attempt to help newcomers get the most out of the monestry.
How do you plan to "automatically" send this to every new poster? What is this auto-responder of which you speak? I understand that this document is simply a modification of the c.l.p.m document, but this terminology would confuse me in a web environment.
13. You may like to check out some of the home nodes of our resident gurus, they are as eclectic as Perl itself but contain a wealth of knowledge and experience. Here are the top 13, ending with Adam.
The top 13? Perhaps I'm nitpicky, but that seems particularly arbitrary to me. I wouldn't bother listing them individually, I'd just link to Saints in our Book. Besides, if the top 13 change (as they eventually will), the document will need to be updated.

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
