-ponder-   For some reason I had the idea stuck in my noggin that POE 
was an OO Perl application server in a box. Since my only concrete 
application server experience is with Apache/mod_perl, I was curious 
about that relationship...

I understand you use a lot of POE @ work. I figured that was (at least 
partially) to support the web sites you run? Are you using Apache? Or 
do the POE boxes live elsewhere in your enterprise?
