in thread The Future of Perl 5

So you've done a LOT for Perl 6. For which we can only be thankful.

Why?

    Why?

    Because I'm not a member of the DGA and felt it would be inappropriate to re-credit my work to Alan Smithee.

      yeah, film unions rule Hollywood ...

      > inappropriate to re-credit my work to Alan Smithee.

      for those wondering --> Alan_Smithee
