in thread to perl or not to perl

I didn't mean that I *never* use implicit variables. But I still find there are many cases where I find that implicit variables do things I didn't expect.

Yes, I understand that there are many ways they can make my code more concise and efficient. But I am also thinking of the people who may come after me and have to maintain my code. AFAIK I am the only Perl programmer at my workplace, so I try to keep things as explicit as possible.

As I learn more about Perl I find myself using it more idiomatically.
