You do. (-:

My PERL is fairly rudimentary, just ask Matt. In the course of work I use a 
lot of C, BASH and PHP, all of which are either light on for or missing 
object orientation.

I wouldn't mind knowing a bit more PERL. It can be fun to speak in scribble 
fluently. (-:

I picked up enough Python to get by on in about 4 hours, and am considering 
becoming a Ruby programmer in the name of staying ahead of the fashion.
