You misunderstood something I said, which when taken in context, was
appropriate then and I would say it again today.  It was a reaction to
something you said, which had I known *more* about the situation, might
have come out differently, but it wasn't clear from the post you made.

See http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.beginners/2009/08/msg108709.html

I'll let my words stand for themselves.
