I appologize to the 4500+ people that I caused undue effort in hitting their delete
button.
As for PERL questions getting me banned from the list, I wonder, aren't we all in the
same industry here? Lets face it, all languages have different addvantages and
disadvantages, that's why there are so many of them. Also, at one time or another we
will all have to deal with languages we don't know.
Now, I thought that this was a list of programmers, designers, and other engineers of
internet and network applications. Hence, I figured that it would be a logical place to
ask the occassional non-JSP question (If it's all the same, I already get up to 300
messages a day from this list and the servlet list, I don't care to add another couple
of hundred adding myself to more lists). Also, I can't help but notice the amount of
HTML questions that keep popping up in my inbox either from this list or the servlet
one. If you have some grievance with my email, hit delete. I won't take offense, I
promise.
