in reply to Could Perlmonks be used as a reference?

Testimonial: during my recent job search, I invited prospective employers to look me up on PerlMonks and read my posts and replies. That apparently proved useful to some, as it showed how I interact on-line.

I never quoted experience (in agreement with others' remarks) but it seems likely that if someone were using PM as a reference, a high experience standing wouldn't hurt.
