This regex is better than mine, because * is greedy and will gobble
everything till the last "-" matched, not the first one. I momentarily
forgot about that. :) This will handle that situation where there is
multiple "-" characters within the string, but you only want to delete
everything up until the first occurrence of "-".

Then you're probably using the wrong language.
So can someone give me a regular expression that will remove all of the
characters at the start of a string up to and including a "-" (without
quotes).
$title =~ s/^[^-]*-//;
