Thank you for this update: I was struggling with this syntax along with having a large reading burden to get into the whole pod scheme. I see now that it can be incremental, as pod is somehow syntactic perl. I had to wade through File::Find.pm just like they tell you to as well as WWW::Mechanize.pm, which I found astonishing under this view. I had never understood all this **clutter** in these modules that couldn't be perl, at least because it lacked semi-colons. So, yeah, light bulb, there.

Maybe the castaways leave the coast when they get a pause account, define a local::lib, and declare their real intent to make a didactic effort at the material of gilligan's island.

The castaways are logging their misadventures now:

This is how I figured out what has been happening since the 16 days I've had a local::lib :

#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;

use File::Find;
use Cwd;

=pod

find( \&pm_beneath, $current, );


sub pm_beneath {
   use File::Basename;
   my $basename = basename($File::Find::name);
   return unless $basename =~ /\.pm$/;
   print "$File::Find::name\n";
   my $access_age = -A $basename;
   print "    $basename\n";
   print "access age in days: $access_age\n\n";
}
