</font>Drat. It's the nature of following links that you are
presented with "new! must have!" quandaries. <br><br>
In one of the reader reviews of "Here Comes Everybody: The Power of
Organizing Without Organizations" by Clay Shirky, somebody
says their notes about the book included<br>
"+ Excellent account of how Perl beat
out C++ "<br><br>
I suppose now I'll have to buy the book... just to see what they're on
about.<br><br>
Ahhh, "search inside book" ...<br><br>
BTW: Is it a "good thing" when the comments to a blog are 4
times longer than the original posting? How about when that
includes _only_ one troll?<br><br>
