[Chicago-talk] Script creates bad file when not run as root

[Mike Fragassi]

How do you know that a spreadsheet is corrupt - just by whether it loads 
in Excel?
How do you get the files from the Linux system to the Windows system?
Are you following exactly the same steps for the files from your root
account as from the non-root account?

Also, try adding the following to the start of your script, in both 
root/non-root forms:

   use Data::Dumper;
   print Dumper(\%INC);

to be sure that both scripts are loading the exact same modules.
