Doesn't seem obfuscated enough to me. Regardless even of the /ee it's pretty obvious what's going on.

I think it's important to hide the pipe for this one, otherwise while the details are not immediately obvious, the mechanics remain apparent. That's why I chose such an unusual placement of the shell quotes. The caret and dollar used to edit the incoming line also give away a lot. And don't forget that the one who started with pure tedium measures was you. :) (Remember s();..;;)

Obfuscations that rely purely on one or two arcane features don't work very well as far as I'm concerned. The trick is to hide your use of that arcane feature, and if possible even mislead the reader into thinking that something else entirely is going on. The best example I've ever seen is from Abigail: Things are not what they seem like.

As an aside, the best obfu I've ever seen is also from him:

A Japh that uses...
perl -Mstrict -we '$_ = "goto F.print chop;\n=rekcaH lreP rehtona tsuJ +";F1:eval'
(From his Japhs talk.)

Makeshifts last the longest.
