hi daniel,
glad you're still alive -
and working too!

i look forward to being able to see
the hawkesbay.pm home page again.

thanks for answering my question.
kool: 'perl for system administration'.

my favorites are  'mastering regular expressions' [o'reilly]
and 'beautiful web design' [sitepoint].
anyone else?

skoal,
george

p.s. i guess another favorite is 
'cascading style sheets: designing for the web'
[addison-wesley].
though it was published in 1997,
i still often consult it.
