I never made any disparaging remarks about you. I only talked about a tool that you seem to like and I don't. In fact, I did consider and investigate Perl many years ago along with may other languages before I settled on Python. I didn't like it then and I don't like it now. However, I have never called someone "close minded" for preferring a different tool to me. > Don't make me tell here how many things I don't like in Perl. Trust me, there is no need. > I use to tell those things on Perl mailing lists and make upset their Good for you. I also have talked about things in Python that I don't like on this list. No one has ever accused me of being afraid to speak my mind. That facet of my personality has got me in a lot of trouble in my life from parents, teachers, bosses and I have even been known to speak out against the police while they were holding automatic rifles to my head. I doubt that there will ever be enough peer pressure on a mailing list to trump that. > Similarly, if you don't like something in Perl, why don't you tell > them what you don't like to the Perl programmers community and not just > have the guts to tell that in a group where the majority share your > preferences. Because I am not a missionary. Someone came to my house and told me why their way was better so I spoke up. Same thing when the JW come to my front door but I have no interest in going to their Kingdom Hall to tell them why they are wrong. > I came here on the list to find good things about Python and to learn > some things and use its good parts, and not to hear bashing about other > programming languages. Same here but someone (I don't even know who started it) felt that it was necessary to tell us all why their language was better. -- D'Arcy J.M.
