Why post as anonymous monk when asking Qs? You won't get a notice-of-reply in your /msg box...

Another hint: make sure you put a relevant title. Not Can you help me or A small problem but Bizarre mod::perl behaviour or So what's this use strict thing, anyway, making sure that if someone comes along with the same question, that they'll hopefully hit it in the search engine.

Perhaps first-time noders (ie: immediately after first-login) should be shown a page with FAQ type materials...
