Jihad on Leon, anyone? :-)

perl6 is supposed to look a lot like perl5.  If it didn't, we'd call
it Python or something like that.  The interesting bits are where it
doesn't look like perl5 (optional types!  operator and variable
properties!  new built-in porn!).

Did I say porn?  I meant data types.
