[oak perl] Next Oakland.pm Meeting -- a question

[George Woolley]

The theme of the next Oakland.pm meeting is
"How Did You Learn Perl?".

Some answers to the following question 
would actually be of use to me in planning this meeting.
If you own less than 5 Perl Books:  What are they?

If you own more than 5 Perl books
and feel left out 
or for some reason are in the mood for answering questions, 
how about the following:
What book or books do you recommend for learning
whatever you consider to be Perl basics?

You can send answers here
