That's actually a dangerous practice, if you have multiple installs of Perl. Your PATH may not match my PATH, so we'll end up picking different Perl versions to run.

Also, env may not be on your box, and worse, I've seen machines where it's /bin/env instead of /usr/bin/env. Ooops!

    Good point. Being the main 'Perl guy' here at work, I have three installs of Perl. A couple others have two installs and the rest have just one install.
