in reply to PM: history

In the beginning, there was a Larry, and Larry said "Let there be Perl", and there it was, and it was good. Then came O'Reilly, seeing the work of the larry, and saying "Let there be Camels", and it was good. But slightly funny looking, smelly, and temperamental. And then a bunch of monks came, to worship the camel, chanting something incomprehensible, blessing the camel, and eating lots of strawberries. What, no strawberries you say? Well that's a boring story then.
