    Thank you. My goodness, I'm so glad that someone has mentioned this. You should never, ever, ever blindly store data in your database without validating it first.

    Well, most languages now have very similar regular expression support. So what you're really saying is that you don't understand regular expressions. Not a fault of Perl I feel.

    ...it still won't have the graphics and the gameplay that some people want. What do you mean it won't have the gameplay? Sure it won't have the best graphics but as many people have pointed out (and I class myself firmly in this camp) good graphics do not a good game make. At the end of the day I really don't care how purty a game looks or how many polygons are rendered if it's not fun to play. The fact that wii games *do* have the gameplay in lieu of the best graphics around is certainly one of the reasons it's out selling everyone else right now.

    Never listen to music while you're working on something that requires you to concentrate. You'll fuck up a lot. This is, of course, utter bollocks.

    and it is the only way to get an iPod to work.
    Really? The users of banshee might beg to differ. And also off the top of my head see Amarok, ephpod, and I think even winamp supports the iPod these days.
