Merlyn does Quijote next

Hmm. What next, Pierre Menard, author of Perl Best Practices? Or will Merlyn reproduce Quixote, but more ironic than even Menard's reproduction?

I'm sure I'll enjoy the MP3 when I have quiet time to listen. Flicking through the slides was a pleasant reminder of both the Damian's message and Randal's light touch. Borges was right, the interpretation with a different perspective does bring new meaning.

Certainly if I was going to give any profit to Amazon, doing it through Randal's link would be nearly as guilt-assuaging as through my local NPR (National Liberal Radio) affiliate's link.

Anyway, thanks for the cute refresher deck!

Read it. Very nice.

I would be interested in hearing some of your dissenting opinions on some of the practices. Not being very experienced in Perl and having the book I can see why Damian says what he does.

Maybe dissentions make for too long of talks though...
