Some good ones there from the lookup ..
my favourites in a perl sense include:
- Preventive Maintenance
- Process Manager
- Peripheral Module
- Pay Master
- Phase Modulation
- Preventitive Medicine
And the inevitable:
- Project Management (:

Project Management.... hmmm....
Strange how it is that two words, perfectly logical when used
on their own, suddenly become totally meaning less when used
together ;)
How about prattling managers?

Of course there are many
more, but
which ones seem appropriate? They actually list "PERL Monk"
on that first page, but I wonder how many viewers would understand that.
The one that struck me most was
Perpetual Motion - things happen here around the clock!

Through some strange twist of fate, clicking on the "Go" button next to "PERL Monks" takes you to the Amazon page for Java 2 and JavaScript for C and C++ Programmers. Uhh...
perl -pe '"I lo*`+$^X$\"$]!$/"=~m%(.*)%s;$_=$1;y^+*`^ ve^#$&V"+@( NO CARRIER'

That is odd. It seems to be doing a search for 'PERL Monk' which jumps directly to a java book.... This can be replicated with a book-only search on 'perl monk' anywhere on amazon.
