You can also be afflicted by the other extreme: "Writers overload". In that affliction, your mind goes in 300 different directions, which prevents you from concentrating on the task at hand. I think Einstein said " Depression is the well-spring of inspiration", in response to questions about his depressed state. Being older now, I understand what he meant. Being depressed tends to force you deep into the sub-concious mind, and there you find inspiration. So the great minds often go thru "cycles", of deep depression followed by great productive periods.

Getting back to "ideas for perl"............

Whenever I see something everyone seems to like and use, I say to myself: "Hmmmm. Could perl do that?" The latest idea which crossed my mind is "Online Bingo" . But I realized that 5-card-stud, may be more profitable. :-)
