Ah...my mistake as I had somehow mistaken you for the London.pm Greg who
would, in fact, be able to recite Buffy :) He lurks here still if I'm not
mistaken.

If you like Hemingway's fiction I highly recommend his works of
non-fiction which are far better than even his best fiction I think.

That might actually be a refreshing change for a lightning talk :)
Doing a condensed, semi-theatric version of 'the cave' would be even more
fun and apropos for a perl crowd :) Strange prisoners, indeed.
