<P>From what I've read about him, it sounds like Larry ended up putting more into Perl than what he'd initially intended.</P>
<P>Perl is Larry, or maybe the other way round.</P>
<P>Perl's the polyglot, the one with omniverous tastes who seems to want to be everywhere doing everything, working with businesses but still keeping a respectful distance from the marketing machines. Perl's the one who's cracking jokes (Bleach, anyone? Yes, I know that's one of [TheDamian]'s.. but I think it shows Perl philosophy well), getting the job done, and making sure others get involved, quirky and willing to allow you your own quirks.</P>
<P>Maybe with Perl 6 the community redesign will show through and Perl will be different in personality, but I still think the Larryness will show through. It's something in the moustache, I think.</P>
