Not PERL, PeRl, Practical Extraction and Reporting Language, PErsonal Report Language... NO nothing but Perl. I have been scolded and admonished by Higher ups in the Perl "world", those being Perl core team members, top Perl Monks and many on the Perl lists. For your own safety and not to be laghed out of a Perl conference or mocked by hundreds please use it as: Perl Perl is Perl. Period.
