My original critique was wrong.  I mistook /^[.]/ for /[^.]/.

So your post was wrong, but I said it was wrong for the wrong reasons.

That still doesn't solve the problems I addressed about your post elsewhere,
nor that you had to go three rounds with me in private email repeatedly
looking for some way to "save" your original post from being labeled wrong.

I'm here for the group.  I want people to walk away from this list knowing how
to code *better* Perl.  Your post distracted from that.  I have nothing
against you personally, but your behaviors distract from my goal, and will be
called for what they are.
