[Chicago-talk] Perl 101 is ramping up

[zrusilla at mac.com]

As Andy said, it's tailored to a particular audience.  The   
voluminous literature on Perl is daunting even to those of us who  
have been around for a while.

A good summary has a lot of value.  Freelance writers get up to speed  
on a new topic by reading children's books, which can be surprisingly  
good precis of the subject.
