Hi, I am very new to perl and am taking a class on it. I am working on my first project and need some help. My code is this: 

#!/usr/bin/env perl
print "Please enter your first name:";
$FIRST = <STDIN>;

print "Please enter your last name:";
$LAST = <STDIN>;

print "Please enter a temperature in Farenheit:";
$F = <STDIN>;

$C = (($F - 32) * 5) / 9;

print "Thank You $FIRST $LAST, $F degrees Farenheit is $C degrees Cels
+ius.\n";

[download]

but it prints out like this: 

nova> perl project1.pl
Please enter your first name:neg
Please enter your last name:zero
Please enter a temperature in Farenheit:88
Thank You neg
 zero
, 88
 degrees Farenheit is 31.1111111111111 degrees Celsius.
nova>

[download]

See how it separates the lines in the last section at neg? and at zero? and then again at 88? How do I make it display as a whole sentence? Thanks for any help you can give me.

edit: I have no idea why this came out as a solid block of text, I typed it in nice neat paragraphs with lots of space for easy reading, sorry, I don't know what happened.
