First, just moving the offsite link to your homenode might be evading the letter of the law, but not the spirit. This is not code that is hosted on monks, and therefore doesn't belong in the catacombs (even indirectly).

Second, as I started to review the code, I realized that I should bookmark it. Not as something I would want to run, but as something that I can take any 30 lines of and submit to http://thedailywtf.com, except that they really don't need many more Perl examples there. There are just so many things wrong with this code that I don't even know where to start!

To anyone else that might want to look at this code, don't bother. Ugh.
