Elaine,
Thanks for the Christmas cheer! I agree, it's cute.
In answer to your questions:
1) what i like most about perl: easy to learn and powerful enough for lots
of needs
2) I started using Perl about 9 months ago.
3) I don't know what I don't know yet! I guess I would like to be more
clear on system calls from Perl.
4) Are there other women around me in a technical position? Yes. i work
closely with a contractor who has been our Webmaster for about three years.
She has taught me just about everything! Also, one of our two system
administrators is a woman. I'm in good company.
Cheers, everyone,
Kris Backus
