in thread Perl as Cr*p?

Well what I noticed is that most people think perl is a scripting language and not a *real* programming language...

Sadly but true most perl programmers I met only script in perl...

    Once you know Perl, why should you want to script in other languages. The number of times I've started to write a Bash script or a DOS bat file, only to finish it in Perl...

    Portability, flexibility, power and expressability count in scripts as well!
