I'm going to donate 100 guineas (£105, about $160, 160 Euros) to The Perl Foundation for each of 6 articles explaining why

  • INTERCAL is better than Perl
  • Brainfuck is better than Perl
  • Befunge is better than Perl
  • $foo is better than Perl (three rewards)
so that's about $1000 total on offer.
