    Come on, this is not serious.

    If that's the state of perl, then perl is fucked. Larry shows no interest for the langage he created, nor for the audience.

    It looks like an embarassing joke. Sad.

    I hear that after the conference he was attacked by several members of ScreenPeace and PETS (People for Ethical Treatment of Screensavers).

    Absolutely miserable. You FUCKING fail it.
