Gonna have to disagree here- the best perl programmers I know *NEVER* use $_ or other context variables. It makes the code very hard to understand and maintain. They use actual variable names and ignore context variables completely, so you can actually understand what its doing. Of course I help them along- on my team, I bounce code reviews if anyone uses $_ explicitly or implicitly rather than a variable name.
