in thread Perl and Haiku

I never said I wrote a haiku.

I see it more as a koan.

There should be neither too little or too much, neither needless loops nor useless variables, neither lack of structure nor overwhelming rigidity." - The Tao of Programming, 4.1 - Geoffrey James

    F!#K! You are so clever.....laying a trap like that for us otherwise harmless sasquatches to point at. ++ extra points for making a " interactive-thru-time haiku", where our assumptions (deduced from the Title ), were proven wrong. Maybe we need a realtime game for this? I forgot, there is one...it's called the Chatterbox.

    Magic!

    For others like me who hadn't a clue what a Koan was

      If an event occurs in RAM, but no one is there to detect the event, did the event occur ? :-)

      I guess: NO the event did not change the RAM, as long as the RAM is still within operating specs? Some miniscule quark knows the event occurred....so it occurred....the question becomes "does the quark posess intelligence enough to detect it"..... I'm getting confused..:-)
