As the maxim goes, "Only Perl can parse Perl". Therefore the only logical conclusion is that you wrote Perl.
Hey, wait a second, Larry, is that you?

Um, no. I'm working on my third or so Perl parser right now, depending on how you count. And the hard part of parsing Perl is not actually the parsing, it's the lexing, so this parser will write its own lexer automatically, because I'm too lazy to write any more lexers.
