This sure can be an unfriendly list...

This is what I'm trying to understand - what issues does it create?  I still
don't have a real answer.  In fact, in one response on why *not* to use
prototypes, the content included "it's probably best to prototype new functions".

I've been programming Perl for about 10 years.  I do hate the syntax and other
annoyances when I return to Perl from Java or C#, but I also appreciate the
flexibility.  I hope to use this list as a forum for what I hope are best
practices and to further my understanding.  If I am not welcome here, just let
me know.
