There have been a lot of corrections, but I have seen very few messages that I would consider flames. Don't take it too personally.
I dont :) The really nasty ones were off list. But like I stated I'm a big guy and can handle it.
Once the problem is presented the whole community gets to teach. After a suitable amount of time you write a summary. Perhaps you had a particular solution in mind that no one thought of; you can now present it. Perhaps you realise that the solution you originally though of is not as good as something someone else came up with. It doesn't matter. The whole community participates. All you have to do is be a good facilitator, and have the time and patience to summarize all the submitions.
I agree. As I told another in an off-list e-mail I believe my "sense of humor" is lost on the "Perl Borg."
I'll just stick to posting questions -- if any are then considered OT for this list I will happily post elsewhere.
As far I am concerned this thread should be eneded; if anyone else feels the need to reply - please do so off list to me directly.
Thx/Bill
