perl: the first subgenius programming language
	"I used to be a Christian.  I am now a Subgenius."
	I shouldn't use Perl, because it was created by a Christian.
	but Perl is the first Subgenius programming language

what perl needs is a good enema
	this is not perl6 sucks
	this is not "you suck"
	this is not "perl sucks"
	a lot of committees
	people in power stand in the way
	people want job titles but don't want to do work
	nat would sell uri's left nut for a moment with sarah michelle gellar
	some people have been good: they do stuff and help, but don't take over
	
	what is the solution?
	change is up to us.
	just because someone did something, they don't get to stay
	depose the ineffective
	listen to the people who do the work
	we can all code, we can become the people who do the work.
