I had been writing some CGI stuff in C when Sean Burke told me about Perl (4 at the time). I got interested and Perl is also the "king of the string" which matches up great with the textual nature of HTML and HTTP. The real tipping point for me was the memory management but it all just fit so well with CGI in hostile conditions. Thanks Sean!
