What do you use perl for?

• for fun
• l'art pour l'art
• garbage in, garbage out
• whitehat stuff
• blackhat stuff
• keep a business running I don't understand
• keep my own business running
• make money
• Save the world! (how?)
• Other (please elaborate)

As usual: a combination of many of those. I fist look at perl with *any* job-related programming/scripting issue. I also look at perl when trying to express a new idea. The I us it to improve my CPAN modules and to compare to other languages. In all of these FUN! is the most important factor.
