I don't know if any other monks agree with me, but the title for this node sounds a lot more controversial than it should. My first reaction was "What?!? And it's by Ovid?!?" I'd suggest changing the title to something like "'use strict' is not just for Perl".
But this is great information, and reminds me how much Perl (and this site) has influenced my other programming. My main job is to write ASP applications, and I admit I hardly ever turned on 'Option Explicit' or declared my variables until I started reading PM, and realized how horribly wrong that was. I'm still a while off from writing flawless code, but it's getting a lot better.

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).
