rir has been a positive contributor to the Monastery and as such deserves the benefit of the doubt. I read the post as a bit of humor, and frankly I got a chuckle from it.

"has been a positive contributor to the Monastery "... yeah, but the fact still remains that the post is unclear.

I too cannot tell if it is an attempt at humor, or something else (serious).

I too would like to know: is it humor or what (it's confusing and unclear; if it's humor, i'd like to know so I can disregard it completely)?

MJD says you can't just make shit up and expect the computer to know what you mean, retardo! I run a Win32 PPM repository for perl 5.6x+5.8x. I take requests. ** The Third rule of perl club is a statement of fact: pod is sexy.

If you can't tell the difference, than maybe it's just a really good troll. Vote it up :P

I thought the  e= operator was obviously the merging of the == and the eq operators. Thanks, I've updated the node per your critcism.

I don't have an issue with your downvote. Although I tend towards contrariety, occasionally I do talk to people with whom I agree. You vote your votes as you think best. Thanks for the feedback.
