bobf,
In the summer of 2006, I came down with a severe case of mononucleosis which went undiagnosed for several weeks and landed me in the hospital for three days. The folks at work got me a "Get Well Soon" picture frame in which each wrote something. Some of the more comical and appropriate messages were:
sickness > /dev/null
and
"I'm sure there has been a drop in PerlMonks traffic. Get back and fi
+x that!"
Since all of these coworkers, like myself, are not programmers by trade - it is interesting to see that in a troubled times they knew just what would make me feel better. What does all this have to do with "Don't go all PerlMonks on me"? I suppose it is a testament to how zealous and evangelical we can be without realizing it.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
