>$ sudo cpan

This exposes your system to any bugs in the test suite (an accidental 
`rm -rf /` has happened before) with root privileges.  With a modern 
CPAN client, you can set it to use sudo only at install time with the 
make_install_make_command and mbuild_install_build_command knobs.

perl -e 'srand; print join(" ",sort({rand() < 0.5}
  qw(sometimes it is important to be consistent)));'
