in reply to Perl 6: Will we use it?

I personally will not move to perl 6 if I can help it. Its not that I don't want to learn the new constructs, it that I think perl already tries to be a "kitchen sink" language. It seems to me that perl tries to do everything for everyone, and from what I have seen from perl 6, that trend is increasing. Don't get me wrong, I like perl. I just think it needs to stick to what it is good at instead of trying to be something it was never meant to be.
