Hiya Bobby and all - <br>
<br>
I'm a recent arrival to TPM too, having found it by accident, so I'll
introduce myself as well. Anyway, I'm Stuart, I work and live in
Toronto, having moved from Scotland about a year ago, when I quit as
academic faculty from a university there. <br>
<br>
I've been using Perl for about 10 years now, having been a Lisp hacker
for the ten years before that. Perl gives me all the stuff that Lisp
did, without having to write everything from the ground up. Mostly now
I'm using Catalyst and KinoSearch to build search and browsing
interfaces. <br>
<br>

I use Perl both at work and for my own personal projects. Perl is
used quite a bit for many of the Service Console tools which are
shipped with ESX or Server by the engineering team in San Francisco.<br>
<br>
I'm the Tools and Automation lead for the Product Support Engineering
group, which makes tools for use by GSS (Global Support Services) -
essentially tools to help our Technical Support Engineers. I'm the
only one here in Burlington though, the rest of my Team are in SF. The
Burlington office mostly employs Technical Support engineers, along
with a handful of representatives in HR and other departments.<br>

aboard!<br>

I believe another prominent TPM member is out in your neck of the
woods. I've even attended a meeting or two when I lived in Keswick.<br>
<br>
Perl is pleasure or is it also work for you? (VMWare uses Perl? If so,
for what?)<br>
