in reply to Perl for all ages?

I don't think you're ever too old or too young.

I'm 38, so that's a silverback?
Most perl-programmers I have seen all had silver hair showing, single threads or patches... but maybe that says more about perl than age? =P

my($s,$b,@c,@b)=qw(0 0 5C 5F 2F 20);while(int($s+.45)<2){$b[0].=chr(hex($c[int($s+.45)]));$b[1].=chr(hex($c[int($s+2.45)]));$s+=.55}while(1){print $b[$b];$b--;$b*=$b}#Fishnets

    Pull the other one, I've got bells on that one. There are lots of things for that you are too young and lots of others for that you are too old no matter how old you are. The hard thing is to be able to find the right things at the right time. And accept you missed the ones you missed. And not miss others trying to act as if "you're never too old" and just making a fool of yourself.
