Oh, I agree that we're not talking Truths here. And I'm not even talking about Perl, Dave. But again, as I said before, you made a really strong comment about OPEN SOURCE.

You said that "...open source projects...quality varies depending on the quality of the people and their committment to excellence (that's why Perl is such a hacked up language and Python is so excellent)."

I just can't see how you can use Perl as a example of a poor-quality Open Source project, is all.
