I'm a great believer in visual distinctions.

I want people to use Perl. I want to be a positive ingredient of the world and make my American history. So, whatever it takes to give away my software and get it used, that's great.

Real theology is always rather shocking to people who already think they know what they think. I'm still shocked myself.

I'm sorry, but you just made me lose my sense of humor, which is deeply regrettable.

I've had to learn kind of sense when the questions would be coming and be ready to handle them. There's a lot of education and reiteration that happens on these online channels and sometimes it's tempting to just say, "Well, just go and read the documentation," but you know, people appreciate being led along and taught and mentored.

We can debug relationships, but it's always good policy to consider the people themselves to be features. People get annoyed when you try to debug them.

So please don't think I have a 'down' on the MVS people. I'm just pulling off their arms to beat other people over the head with.
