in thread How does one learn perl programming efficiently - if they do not come from computer science background?

If I may also add to my previous questions:
What do you respond to people that tell you " Ah Perl is so much deprecated nowadays, you MUST program in Python instead!!"
Would you advise someone to be expert in Perl or average in both Perl and Python for example?
The way I see it, I would definitely feel satisfied with myself if I could become a very good Perl programmer, instead of putting this effort into learning another, quite similar programming language.
