I certainly hope that you guys aren't still waiting for me.

Sorry I couldn't make it. I had a talk on programming images
in Perl put together, drawn partially from _Graphics
Programming With Perl_, which is now available for
check-out. The code and examples are up on my Presentations
area, here:
    http://csociety.org/~jacoby/Presentations/Images/

So, I'd love to hear comments on, or see the slides from,
the presentations I missed. 54,000% faster, Mark? You must
be slinging black magic, or you must've coded it in bad ways
the first time. And Rick? Looking at closures for another
presentation, it struck me that, once you go there, once you
start thinking about that, you open the door into everything
HOP goes into, so I think I really missed something by
missing your talk.

There is something I *can* present to you, even having
missed the meeting. PerlCast has brian d foy talking about
Benchmarking and his upcoming book from O'Reilly, _Mastering
Perl_. From the look of it, that book will be the next in
the list of Perl 'must-reads'.
