Twenty Years and Counting!

I joined PerlMonks 20 years ago and never looked back. At that time I used Perl for the care and feeding of one of the largest relational databases in the Department of Defense, but because it was within the Intelligence Community there was little I could say about it. The use of Perl earned me the nickname "Mr. Magic", but the magic was in Perl, not in me. I took my signature line from an article in Datamation magazine in the 1980's, but it was over a decade later that I found the language that allowed me to get a lot done without working hard. Perl.

It's been a great ride, but it's not over, not by a long shot. I have since retired from $work and now use Perl for projects at home. My heartfelt thanks to all of you for your generosity with your time and talent.
