I agree with reaping posts that are not Perl related. I do not agree with my pure-perl work being taken down (I can still access the node, but it's not visible as an entry in Poetry). It's not like I went and tried to post this in Craft or Meditations or something. I happen to be very disturbed about the proceedings in Iraq in light of the strongarm slippery-slope the States is getting into, and I wrote a poem about it, in syntactically correct, completely compiler-friendly Perl code. It doesn't matter if you agree with the content or not. It's poetry. It's allowed to be controversial. Mark me down in reputation all you want, I really don't care. But stick to reaping the flames, not the kindling. If it's not back up soon then the people refusing to re-post it should kick themselves out of the Perl culture and go program exclusively in Java or something that doesn't purportedly advocate TMTOWTDI.

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).
