I use Perl every day and love it!

This is a thank-you report for perl from mike@coddington.us,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.39 running under perl 5.16.0.


-----------------------------------------------------------------
I just wanted to say thanks for making a programming language that is easy enough to use and powerful enough that it got me back into enjoying programming. I used to find programming interesting in high school, but then I sort of lost my way and gave it up. I was missing out! Thank you!
