A very useful technique for tracking down a bug when you have no idea where the bug is, is to comment out code until the bug goes away. A very useful technique for getting other people to look at a problem for you is to do, and obviously have done, as much work in tracking the bug down yourself. Actually, in a case like this these are the same technique! We generally aren't interested in wading through 300 lines lines of code to find the 10 interesting lines. By cleaning up and condensing your questions to the largest extent you can you learn more yourself, you may actually find the problem yourself and if you end up needing to ask anyway you will get more people looking at the problem and will most likely get better answers. In Perl circles lazyness is a virtue, but sometimes you have to work damn hard to be suitably lazy. ;) DWIM is Perl's answer to Gödel
