1.  You may have been able to garner some sympathy if you hadn't used
the I'm taking my ball and going home! line.  That wasn't well
advised.

2.  I really wish everyone would shut up about this and talk about Perl.
If you really don't like what he has to say, don't read his emails or
respond to him.  I'm about ready to /dev/null YOUR emails, by now.  See
point 1. for why.

I kind of wish I could say that I didn't read all of that, but I
actually did. Thanks for the laughs, guys. I ESPECIALLY ENJOYED ALL
THE CAPITAL LETTERS.

OT penance: Don't splice into an arrayref returned from
$sth-fetchrow_arrayref() (unless you make a copy of it first) when
using DBD::mysql or you will probably segfault the next time around
the loop.

 Shawn is always kind to reply all kinds of questions here with
 high-level skills.I think both you are great to people in the perl

 please.This's a technology lists,too much topics about personal feeling
 shoud get things not good.

First, I would like to say: I am sorry I got your name wrong in the
Subject, it should be Randal L. Schwartz. I apologize for my error.

Second, there is technology; and then there are people. I do not
disagree with his answers about technology; I disagree with his attitude.

Learning to program is a difficult task. Learning to program when
somebody is given harsh criticism is even more difficult. It's not
because he gave harsh criticism to one person; it's because these things
spill over to all.

I have put up with Mr. Schwartz' comments. I have put up with Mr.
Schwartz calling me wrong, even though I was right (and the bad words he
called me).

BUT I WILL NOT TOLERATE HIM SAYING SOMEBODY SHOULD NOT POST TO THIS
MAILING LIST BECAUSE OF AN ERROR.

We all make mistakes. I make mistakes. Randal makes mistakes (I told you
I have a list). Mistakes are not as important as attitude.

It comes down to this, either he will post an apology for stating a
third party should not post his comments, or I'll leave this list, never
to return.

I DON'T PUT UP WITH BULLIES IN ANY FORM, FOR ANY REASON!
