in reply to Helping Beginners

When I first took an interest in Perl, this site was what convinced me it was worth pursuing. When someone would post a particularily interesting problem, I was always amazed to see eight or ten completely different implementations. `Dumbing down Perl' will certainly improve the novice comprehension, but please, don't stop giving the really clever solutions as well. TIMTOWTDI is an important theme around this place, and should be taught to beginners along with the code.
