brian d foy started a Make Perl Nerd Merit Badges campaign at crowdtilt

The campaign, been open for few weeks now, with 6 or 5 days left and it didnt even rich the tilt amount of only 800 USD. At the moment of this writing, it only collected 614 USD

Since this was not mentioned here before, I thought, I'd mention it maybe some monks would like to contribute

    What is the dinosaur supposed to be ? a camel?

      For those who are wondering why a velociraptor was chosen instead of a camel for the badge, here's a blog post from Mark Keating on the Evolution of the Velociraptor that gives a background on how this particular dinosaur became associated with Perl 5.
