Yes.  

And another thing...

There was a pile of wailing about perl vs. php, waxing and waning etc.,
not so 
long ago.  I was looking for some LAMP info on a debian site recently, and

the only material I came across was php related.  It was almost as though 
perl did not exist when people are considering Linux, Apache, MySQL and 
P...?  There is something not quite right here (IMHO).  Perhaps we need to

revive some enthusiasm for advocating perl, by not resting on past laurels

but by writing some new ones.  By contributing new material to the many 
public wikis, books, magazines, and online reference etc., about our
language 
of choice, too?
