This is probably the most detailed response I've read, and to be honest, the most personal.

You see, I'm from Toronto.

Your posts for years that I've followed have been to the point, logical, correct and sensible. I respect you wholeheartedly.

I travel back to Toronto to see Mom a few times per year, so I'd love it if you'd reach out so this hardware/software hacker could meet another one, in person, for real.

As far as your first distribution to the CPAN, I went through that fear. Honest to goodness... I would love to chat with you about that. Get ahold of me via easy to find channels and we'll talk on the phone.
