Click on news.perl.com and find out.

......spoiler......

news.perl.com redirects you to the homepage of the above mentioned center. (if you hadn't figured that out already)

Funny. I went to Penn, and if I remember correctly the Newman Center is the only piece of property not owned by the university in a three block radius. The university owns the huge plot of land campus is on, and this one tiny little lot is owned by the church. Perhaps being the only non-perl-related property in the perl.com domain space comes naturally to them. ;-) -Blake	[reply]

Wierd stuff... $ nslookup news.perl.com Note: nslookup is deprecated and may be removed from future releases. Consider using the `dig' or `host' programs instead. Run nslookup wit +h the `-sil[ent]' option to prevent this message from appearing.
