Yep. I never fully understood closures until I used them in Perl. After that, Lisp and Scheme were no big deal. [Except for the Y-Combinator, and ((call/cc call/cc) (call/cc call/cc)); those still make my brain hurt]. /me wonders how different the world would be if EvilLarry didn't let map and filter^Wgrep slip into Perl...
