in reply to Alone with Perl

This one's going on the wall in my office so I can glance up at it while I'm trapped, so very alone, in the horrid world of Java.

What is it, exactly, about Perl that allows us to foster such a welcoming, nurturing community? Why don't any other languages have anything that even comes near what we have here?

Oh well, back to the trenches that are Enterprise SystemsTM.
