in thread Give a fish or teach to fish?

moritz's response is, IMHO, incredible. It is not unlike the notion of "higher order functions." Here we're engaged in a discussion of inquirers seeking knowledge and how others engage the inquirer to provide the most beneficial experience, and moritz raises the bar: providing us with a higher-order direction that could teach us "is it better to give a higher-order fish or to teach us how to seek a higher-order method of fishing."

Amazing! That appeals to a certain sense of Perl within me; thanks moritz.
