Our new CEO has an "open email" policy where any employee may send him an email and he'll actually read it. One of my co-workers sent him an email and got a response back within a day or two.
So, today I sent him a short note explaining why he should consider a donation to the Perl Foundation. :)
I'll keep y'all posted.

It can't hurt to try.
You're insufficiently pessimistic. Perhaps the boss is completely unaware that communistic, security-destroying open-source software is being used at the company, and the e-mail would trigger a companywide purge.

The stock has fallen to 1 3/4 today on news that the company is undergoing scrutiny by the SEC. There's probably going to be a companywide purge of some kind one way or another real soon.I think I picked a bad day to ask.

...the company is undergoing scrutiny by the SEC...
Er, ditto but on a somewhat larger scale - sigh...
