Neither would I. In the past, I have posted similiar messages about cpan or other perl-related topics and I would always get considered by some zealous monk. I guess I am kinda shaken up by the whole considered experience. It's the same feeling of dread when I post code here that doesn't use warnings or strict. I know the code police will yell at me. Hmmm.... Perhaps we can call it Post (on PM) Traumatic Syndrome. :)
