I am old to programing, and new to Perl. I've been a coder of the old school and OO for a looooooonnnnnnnnnggg time (read "longer than <statistically> half of you have been alive"), and I was becomming jaded, or at least complacent. But "LO", I have discovered something truly elegant and almost noble in Perl. Hat's off to Larry Wall. ThreeTape BTW.....How many of you remember what a Three Tape Merge is? That's how old I am......
