You are correct on the tired bit. And thanks for the correct syntax -- must have been a mental block on this when I was looking at it earlier.

I do remember trying bizarre things like @( split '', "iguana") and I'm not sure why I thought that would work. I suppose I should just stick to my original overtired excuse. I was, after all, looking at the sunrise from the wrong side (as in, I was up all night, and went to bed shortly after posting this).

    We all have nights like that--least I do :0 (that's a yawn!).

    Funny thing with me is that there is a sweet spot between getting tired, and becoming incapable. It varies between 1/2 hour and a couple of hours in which everything just seems to click. I can be more productive in that time than throughout the rest of the day. The problem is recognising when I transition from the state of grace to "what a state". It's not always obvious to me at the time, as there are a few indicators around this site.
