in reply to Proposed North of England PerlMongers group

Any interest so far from my brethern in Geordieland? Or is there some work required on a CPAN module that translates the local vernacular into human readable English?

#!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict use Acme::Geordie while (<>) { /$EXPRESSION{"Dinnae dunsch uz, wa Geordies!"}/ and print q{"Don\'t crash into us. We are Geordies and will hurt +you.\n"}; /$EXPRESSION{"Ye oop?"}/ and print q{"Are you up?\n"}; /$EXPRESSION{"Why aye man!"}/ and print q{"Of course.\n"}; }

The above is a shameless ripoff of Regexp::Common, and probably wouldn't work the way I thought it would...but what the hell :-)
