This is really tremendous, and deserves more prominent, front-page billing. In 
fact, it would be nice if this were available as a nicely formatted html page, 
but better yet, as a tutorial in a(n ideally browser-based... Joel, any news 
back from Miyagawa on implementing a browser-based PDL shell on dotcloud?) PDL
