I need to parse a fairly large XML response file and would like some suggestions
on which XML module would work the best. We've been using the XML::Simple
module, but I don't think that's the right one for the job. Below is the XML
file we need to parse. In particular getting the data from the elements within
the <message></message>
Would the XML::Twig module work better for this ?? Any suggestion would be much
appreciated.

consumer"s SSN but where the name bears little or no resumblance to
