I don't know what module(s) you are using, but this reminds me of an article 
by Randall Schwartz I saw today that talks about IO::Socket::INET. It (for 
example) has an EOL method (CRLF) which he recommends as being more 
portable. There was also a picture. It's clear to me that as with radio 
djs, photographs of Perl gurus just get in the way of the virtual image we 
carry in our minds. ;-))
