<print> As odd as it may seem, I have been the unix career for about 25 years. ATT -> SCO -> now in AIX. I havent really dabbled with using perl but I stumbled upon a project that now has me fascinated by the language. I recently purchased a wifi filtrete thermostat that allows me to curl data from the thermostat itself and present it to me in the format you have here. Like with any of us that have been unix admins, its a constant growing experience. If anything I have learned there are some really good people in this field and you guys have proven that. I overnighted my new 2012 4th edition perl programming book from amazon and I should be getting it today. As I tinker with the info I have so far, I'll update here but you all have given me MORE then enough to go with! I couldn't have expected better treatment from this groups members. Thanks again. I'll let you know how I progress on this project and my adventures from another newb in Perl. Loving it so far. An amazing language. Julian.
