Sounds great. Trouble is I've never worked in a perl company before.
I've always been the 'Perl guy'. I worked at a ISP once, but the tech
manager had something religious against Perl, and scrubbed it off all
the machines. I had to write in Bash script instead (ick!).
I hear it's pretty popular in some statistical and accountancy
companies, but I don't know of any in Canberra.

I'm actually just preparing my first for upload to Perlmonks to be torn

so I need to get clearance before I mess with them.
