BUT where else do you see a community like PM?
Oh, please. Thank god, nowhere else. To tell you a secret,
a lot of Perl people absolutely hate PM because of this
so-called "PM community". They are seen as pompous pricks
(and that's one of the less insulting terms I've heard),
who aren't much better than the slashdot crowd. And each
time I see posts like this, gloating about the nirvana of
"the perlmonk community", I've to agree with them.
I post here. But I'm not part of a "PM community". I don't
like being called a Perlmonk. I only post here because I
like to talk about Perl. But I don't consider PM to be anything else than Usenet with the poorest and slowest interface I've ever seen.
