in reply to I first became interested in Perl because...
I've been using various CGI scripts since 5 or so years ago (remember Matt?), but at that time I never bothered to learn Perl deeply, just barely scratching the surface with the common denominator to C, et al.
Only quite recently did I get to use Perl frequently, ever since stumbling upon an old copy of the Blue Camel from someone named Anthony Ettinger, at the used-books bin here in Manila. Cheers to him for helping me start out! :D
