lol...Ok. The array by itself didn't work. Here is some better output:

$perl * -d 01-Jul-2002 -c uslecatl5e1
Preparing statement:
 select
     clli, traffic_date, count(distinct(traffic_hour))
  from
     gvc_traffic30
 where
    traffic_date in (?)
      and
    clli         in (?)
      and
    traffic_type = 'N'
group by
     clli, traffic_date, traffic_hour

running with args  : 01-Jul-2002 uslecatl5e1

For all those that question...@args is: 
        0 :01-Jul-2002
        1 :uslecatl5e1

It was the only way I could match the number of args that I needed to send to execute with the number of '?'s that I prep'ed $statement with.
