in reply to Failure To Refactor

Ouch, I've been there! Working with people who don't care about code quality is really rough. It's actually the main problem I see with these kind of XP practices: they only work if everyone does them. Sadly, Perl often ends up taking the blame for bad coding like this, even though it's ultimately the people who wrote the code who are at fault.
