I've chatted about it and can definitely bring along two others next 
time.  If everyone could manage that we're talking multiple tables!

Split thing?

Agree with your POV though

...here's a question then that is sort of on-topic because Simon has 
been expressing an interest in CGI:  where's the silver-bullet 
framework for Perl-CGI?  I've been banging on at this for years now and 
I don't think it's possible to get any more `professional' than my 
current toolbox:

mod_perl (unless it's a cheapo hosting deal)
Handler inheriting from CGI::Application
CGI::Session or Apache::Session (can't decide)
TT2 for *total* separation of style and content
`leet web authoring skillz'
Other modules I like the look of.

Now, we hear a lot about what is wrong with a load of existing 
solutions but I don't believe people are actually writing everything by 
hand so what are we using?  What do you get told to use if you are just 
starting out?

Hopefully next time I won't miss the train by five seconds and have to 
give a taxi driver who looked like he'd had more beer than me thirty 
five quid to work out the longest possible route to my house [:-(]
