Last night was fun, although I admit I'm wondering if there's a
'perl-tinkers' list I should go looking for in favor of 'perl-mongers'.
Thanks for letting me drop in. Randal certainly doesn't equate to my
preconception of book authors, which is a good thing.
Thanks much for the community info as well. Actually, I am the sole (local)
unix admin in a very Microsoft-centric environment, which has stifled my
exposure to new technology and current topics (all the fun stuff). I can
feel my brain smoothing out :) The links you provided should help me start
to resolve the disconnect.

Last night, Lee was wondering about useful resources we know about.
(He works in a Unix-centric environment.)
Since there were several conversations going on at the time, and
not everyone was there, I'm throwing this onto the list.
Here's the stuff *I* use, in more-or-less descending order:
http://groups.google.com./ This one sees at *least* an order of
magnitude more activity from me than all the others.
Mailing lists.
Boulder.pm (Hey, of course)
BLUG http://lug.boulder.co.us/
CO-SAGE http://www.co-sage.org/
FRUUG http://www.fruug.org/
RMIUG http://www.rmiug.org/
Usenet.
Yeah. Well. My .newsrc has 92 active groups in it right now,
and the usual suspects include
comp.security.unix
comp.unix.admin
comp.lang.perl.misc
I won't list the scary devil monastery, because its
a corrupting influence and I don't want to be responsible for
helping develop someone else's bad attitude.
As far as other languages go, we have a good number of devotees here,
and they're welcome to do their own evangelism.
