Of the 141 with code tags, 89 (63.1%) were made in a one month window (2009-02-26 to 2009-03-25).

I'm not sure how to respond to this, nor even quite what to make of your intent.

What I can say is that I've just waded through all 620 nodes posted in 2009, and of the 141 with code tags, exactly 12 contain actual code. All those are in his own root nodes (ie. his own code asking questions, or in those threads). All bar one are just snippets. Just one, was actual, runnable code.

All the other 129 instances of code tags are used as poor substitutes for [mod://] tags; or [keyword] tags or [perldoc://] tags;

Or as an inappropriate quoting mechanism: :-), COBOL, TIMTOWTDI, THItheBoxNK, ooommmmmmm!, Have you heard of m-o-n-s-t-e-r-.-c-o-m and similar.

I also scanned on into the first half of 2010 and it is a similar story. Not a single instance of him proffering a working solution to an OP.

Maybe my memory is not so bad after all.

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
