[tpm] Just introducing myself

[Stuart Watt]

Hiya Bobby and all -

I'm a recent arrival to TPM too, having found it by accident, so I'll 
introduce myself as well. Anyway, I'm Stuart, I work and live in 
Toronto, having moved from Scotland about a year ago, when I quit as 
academic faculty from a university there.

I've been using Perl for about 10 years now, having been a Lisp hacker 
for the ten years before that. Perl gives me all the stuff that Lisp 
did, without having to write everything from the ground up. Mostly now 
I'm using Catalyst and KinoSearch to build search and browsing interfaces.

Stuart
