Ah well, if this is turning into a PA meeting...
I'm Michael, and see Perl less as a scripting language, more as a way of life
;) I'm in Glasgow, but can easily be persuaded to visit Edinburgh if beer is
involved.
It is my belief that Perl code is self documenting as Perl is a natural first
language, but occasionally needs translating into other language for less
mortals.
I worry that Perl 6 will screw up all my code. The Campaign for Real Perl
starts here.
I have discovered ePerl which allows me to use Perl as a hardware description
language now - this is *very* useful.
Oh, I probably count as a geek. Sorry.
