    If Anonymous Monk can modify "their" question, then we have a security bug at PerlMonks. The question looks roughly the same as when I first saw it. What made you think it had been modified?

    - tye        

      I saw you both suggest that my $onlyUse = 0; be added, yet I see that initialization in the original e-mail as the first statement.

      Admittedly I looked at this in the middle of the (local) night when I wasn't at my best. What am I missing?

    No, no modifications. It was as simple as setting to zero in the wrong spot. I knew that if I finally got some sleep it would probably be obvious, and indeed it was. I thank all for their help, though, because had I suffered a fourth sleepless night then I would have been an addled-brained caffiend this morning and who knows what time I would have wasted...
      I apologize for my comment. I'd just been beeped out of bed, finished my indentured servitude, and decided to look in on the Monastery. I won't do that again... 8-)
