... any other angsty, sexually frustrated perl monks that were in the process of helping me ... Including the autistic mods that are minusing my reputation ...

Brilliant! Way to go to solicit work on your homework assignment. Please accept a -- from this humble, angst-ridden, sexually frustrated, autistic monk. And most welcome.

P.S.: Should you condescend to accept any of the solutions offered to you for submission as "your" homework, please also consider the Offering Plate (not that I'll be holding my breath).

Update: OTOH, up-votes all around to those angst-ridden, sexually frustrated, autistic monks who actually provided positive responses of a quality out of all proportion to that merited by the OPer.
