    I guess I should cite Larry Wall, from this post:

    "Of course, in Perl culture, almost nothing is prohibited. My feeling is that the world already has plenty of prohibitions, so why invent more?"
            --2nd State of the Onion

    "In few words, translating PerlMonks documentation and best articles to other languages is like building a bridge to join other Perl communities into PerlMonks family. This makes the family bigger, the knowledge greather, the parties better and the life easier." -- monsieur_champs
