Good evening, all.  I just joined and wanted to introduce myself.

Although I primarily use Java-oriented tools during the day, I've been
a Perl programmer for just over 11 years.

My biggest Perl claim-to-fame, was placing 2nd in one of The Perl
Journal's Obfuscated Perl Coding contests:

The theory of operation of my entry can be found here:

For those who haven't nodded off to sleep whilst reading my first 
post, here's a more comprehensive list of items I've written that 
have appeared in prominent tech publications. ( Including the first 
CGI article in print in the pages of a DDJ special edition.  Okay, 
there was another CGI article in the issue, but *ours* were the 
first ones in print. )

I look forward to chatting with you all about "old" Perl, OO Perl, 
Perl 6 under Parrot, and some of the kooky CGI tricks I've done 
using Perl. ( A Perl CGI in ".zip" clothing, a web-page hit-counter 
that generates a GIF without using any LZW compression... )

I hope to meet some of you at upcoming meetings.
