Why?
...master of none.
Remember back in early '92 being told that Perl was the way to go. Trying to get things done in a hurry, I stuck to writing a lot of scripts in sed. My career path might've been much different had I listened back then and took the time. Have played with Perl here and there, but never found the time to really get my head wrapped around it. To this day, Perl seems too much a conglomeration of disparate ideas rather than a cohesive whole.
Perl is dangerous in that it can be easy to do things, but rather harder to master.
