but in *color*.

Also, please note that Damian would really like to see more
students in his Seattle & Kirkland training classes for that
same week, so check out http://teachmeperl.com for details.

          "Everyday Perl - The Horror that is ~damian/bin"

In this new talk, Damian walks us through his ~/bin directory,
explaining the numerous home-spun Perl scripts that he uses
on an everyday basis.

Remember, we're dealing with "The Damian" here, so just because
the scripts are short and practical, that doesn't mean they
can't also be scary!

Pre- and Post- Meeting Activities
---------------------------------
The pre-meeting dinner will be at the Cedars restaurant, at 50th
St. and Brooklyn, in the University District, near the Safeco
building where the meeting will take place. The phone number is
527-5247. If you're planning to be there, please post a message
to the list with your expected arrival time (5:30-5:45pm is
recommended).

As usual, those seeking liquid input before (and/or after) the
meeting are invited to congregate at the nearby Finn MacCool's
tavern, at 4217 University Ave. North, (206) 675-0885.  (But if
somebody has a *specific recommendation* for an alternative location
that's more conducive to conversation, please let me know, and
we'll consider trying it out.)

See the web-site for more details.
