in thread Something to meditate on -- the need for a trendy perl?

Larry Wall freely admits to having stolen Perl 5's object system from Python. For example, in the 2007 state of the onion he writes:

"I'm not terribly qualified to talk about Python however. I don't really know much about Python. I only stole its object system for Perl 5. I have since repented."

use Moops; class Cow :rw { has name => (default => 'Ermintrude') }; say Cow->new->name
