"Meanwhile, on the weirder side of the fence, the tendancy of Perl
enthusiasts to head into strange territory came to the fore. Want to write
a program in Perl... and make it scriptable in Javascript ? Yep, that's
do-able, as Claes Jacobsson demonstrated. This was, however, as nothing
compared to Robin Houston's mutagenic modules - basically, a whistle-stop

self-modifying (at my count, there are about twenty of them - but he
probably missed some)."
