I thought I'd post this since -this- is the point that both masak and I were trying to make with our respective blog posts (mine is linked from there, masak's is http://use.perl.org/~masak/journal/39912) - and since the original story linking to my rant where I'd started replying seems to have been killed, I figured a slightly less profane/insane link might be more acceptable.
Nice. But even the non-profane Perl-related posts seem to get killed with increasing regularity. Apparently people are so upset that Perl still exists that they feel the need to click the "flag" button.
