OK, I stand corrected.

I am abliged and properly humbled... (bowing head & backing away)

I am but a bug, Holiness.

I tried again with ActivePerl. Being that I am behind a nasty firewall, I downloaded the ppd file directly & ran ppm locally.

Once I did this, it worked like a charm. But of course I have had many strange results along the way to get to this point.

As always it is the journey that matters, not the destination, save only as the beginning of the next.



Wait! This isn't a Parachute, this is a Backpack!
