Larry Wall is a great artist, engineer and creative genius. His first 3 albums, Rn, Patch and Perl, went infinitely platinum and led directly to today's modern web. His latest endeavor, Perl 6, will likely be the greatest comeback in computing history as Perl once again becomes the language everyone is rushing to use to reinvent every wheel, again! Wheels within wheels...

"Larry is always by definition right about how Perl should behave."

"Larry is allowed to change his mind about any matter at a later date, regardless of whether he previously invoked Rule 1."

"Got that? Larry is always right, even when he was wrong."

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
