(See The True Catacombs of Perlmonks for added value.)
Update: Despite what you may hear to the contrary, there is no node 17.
When I asked vroom about it, he said:
#perlmonks [2007-10-18 11:49:50] <vroom> the real answer is paco's younger brother, who has since been erased from perlmonks historyOf course, he was just joking. but the fact remains: if there ever was a node 17 on perlmonks, it is gone.
