 This question was posted to clpmisc (I think. Or maybe 
 de.clpmisc) just a couple of days ago. I'll try to find it.
 If I do, I'll post the followups.
 
 Amazon.com was one of them, I believe. I think mp3.com was 
 also mentioned.

Yes. The question is 93ku8m$h25$[EMAIL PROTECTED] (aka
http://x52.deja.com/threadmsg_ct.xp?AN=714612447.1 which also shows you the
thread). Author "webqueen, queen of the web [EMAIL PROTECTED]", Subject
"are there sites with Perl Advocacy examples?", Date "Thu, 11 Jan 2001
18:32:54 GMT".

Someone using the pseudonym "David H. Adler" pointed webqueen to
http://perl.oreilly.com/news/success_stories.html , which Dave Cross also
pointed to. "Maggert" listed mp3.com, NASA, and Sandia Labs.

Cheers,

 Slashdot?

If the guy in question has never _heared_ of Perl, I'm not sure Slashdot
will mean much to him..
