His responses are not the issue of this thread. The disused and condescending disclaimer is (paraphrased as: Attention! Keep reading until you understand I'm right and your own thoughts on any matter wherein we differ are invalid; you might have to re-read it a few times, I know how tough reading comprehension can be for some). I was trying to be playful with it above. No one earns the right to avoid being called on hypocrisy. It has nothing to do with his well known and well considered value to this site and Perl in general.

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).
