    I have been a Perl guru since version 2.0

    Really!

    Where have you contributed? What modules have you authored on CPAN?

    Didn't think so.

    Or is a Perl guru someone who waits with baited breath on slashdot for a Perl story to bash.

    Whoah, moderators, did any of you actually read the last two paragraphs of this post??? The gratuitous link to goat sex? The vulgar insults? If there was ever a post in need of -5, flamebait or -5, overrated, this is it. Too bad this jerk posted AC, so I can't put him on my foes list...

    The content of the post that is actually about Perl is also not that insightful. He seems to have completely missed one of the main important things about Perl 6, which is the use of the Parrot VM.
