Now that I been using Perl for almost 20 years.  I tend to be nice to myself and go back and update the variable names and I always use the m in a match and only ever use m// or m{}.

And, I am the crazy guy who maintains the code I once wrote and I know where I live.

The funny thing about Perl is that the code you write seems to stick around a lot longer than you would have imagined.
