OO Perl is easy once the penny has dropped, actually I couldn't believe
how easy it is. However it doesn't suit evey solution and it's a bit
slower than procedural Perl.
 
I'd be happy to help you get going if you want a talk on the topic,

fails on this first test, no amount of ornamentation or finish will
make it any better, it will only make it more expensive and foolish.
