There seems to have been a small explosion of pushback on this article
lately.  Here are some relevant links:

  http://regex.info/blog/2006-09-15/248
    Jeffrey Friedl, author of _the_ programmer-oriented book on regexes
    (which I'm currently reviewing for Edinburgh.pm)
  http://daringfireball.net/linked/2007/february#tue-13-cox_regex
  http://2lmc.org/spool/id/5530
  http://perlmonks.org/?node_id=597364
    demerphq (Yves Orton), who's written huge swathes of new features
    for the regex engine in Perl 5.10

I'll be at the meeting this evening; see some of you there.
