I second this.  In fact, I've already told Dan in private email (for
which he flamed me back) that his postings are outside the c.l.perl
charter.  If someone is asking for a Perl solution to a problem, they
don't want to be told it can be done in C (they probably already know
that).

Please keep off-charter postings off this newsgroup!

Just another Perl hacker, that'd rather be spending time finishing The
Book than arguing with someone without common sense,
