Hey, I only learned about it by asking Sean years ago. I've used it a lot since 
then, though.

Confusion is the first step of understanding.

Programming is as much about organization and communication
as it is about coding.

The secret to great software:  Fail early & often.

Eliminate software piracy:  use only FLOSS.

Does Pod::Simple understand UTF-8?  I have a POD with '½' in it but when 
I run it through Pod::Simple::SimpleTree, I get '½'.  The UTF-8 code is 
C2 BD which corresponds to  and ½ in ISO-8859-1.  How do I turn on UTF-8?
