in thread Visual Basic to Perl transition

Perl isn't one of them ... yet. The only semi-working Perl6 interpreter (Pugs) actually targets Haskell, not Parrot. (This is largely due to Parrot's lack of support for certain necessary features in Perl6, like objects.)

Being right, does not endow the right to be rude; politeness costs nothing.
Being unknowing, is not the same as being stupid.
Expressing a contrary opinion, whether to the individual or the group, is more often a sign of deeper thought than of cantankerous belligerence.
Do not mistake your goals as the only goals; your opinion as the only opinion; your confidence as correctness. Saying you know better is not the same as explaining you know better.

    If it does not support objects, then how could it be of any use to Python?
