Do you leave your home door wide open when you enter your house?
My intial off the cuff reply to this message didn't seem to post,
which is just as well, because I browsed back through the list to get
a representative sampling of the quality of your input.
My advice: it could use some work.
First of all your statement above is garbled. Is it in reference to
the code I posted? If so it'd be good to clearly refer to the code.
I don't normally comment on newsgroup/mailing list process issues, but
one obvious thing is that this is not a chat room, it's a language
related newsgroup. If you have a critique of any code or discussion
of code I post, say so, but do it clearly.
I'm not thin skinned ... rip into my code and tear it apart. Dazzle
me with your depth of knowledge of perl.
Metaphors are fine if they are clear and competent. The statement
above is neither.
Second, do you ever post code examples or evaluation of code? There's
nothing in the posts I've read to indicateMy intial off the cuff reply

Second, do you ever post code examples or evaluation of code? There's
nothing in the posts I've read to indicate that you have even
rudimentary proficiency with perl. There's nothing to indicate you
don't either, but there are a handful of people here whose posts I
read carefully (even if I don't like their stylistic traits or
nettiquette). An orientation and focus on the problems and questions
at hand are one of the things which helps me devise my list of posters
worth reading.
I hope this is helpful. Your volume of posts indicates a great deal
of energy. If you'd work on channeling that energy in the service of
useful and constructive activity, it would serve both the perl
community and yourself much more effectively.
Now how about it? How does the one line code above relate to my
earlier post? that you have even rudimentary proficiency with perl.
