Drat.  It's the nature of following links that you are presented with 
"new! must have!" quandaries.

In one of the reader reviews of "Here Comes Everybody: The Power of 
Organizing Without Organizations"  by Clay Shirky, somebody says 
their notes about the book included
       "+ Excellent account of how Perl beat out C++ "

I suppose now I'll have to buy the book... just to see what they're on about.

Ahhh, "search inside book" ...

BTW: Is it a "good thing" when the comments to a blog are 4 times 
longer than the original posting?  How about when that includes 
_only_ one troll?
