This article is poorly written. It puts forth an argument ("Perl should be taken seriously"), then provides nothing to back it up. In fact, after the first section, it's a beginner's primer on Perl syntax.
Additionally, some of the best reasons to use Perl (closures, eval, references-as-scalars, lists + map/grep, etc) aren't even listed. The best benefit (CPAN) isn't even mentioned. Should we write our "clarification"? ------
Please remember that I'm crufty and crochety. All opinions are purely mine and all code is untested, unless otherwise specified. In reply to Re: Thinking in Perl
