A very nice article but it does not address the one issue that is always 
a show-stopper:  I can't use CPAN modules because my PHB won't let me. 
There is, sadly, only one thing you can do; update your résumé and get 
it circulating.  Fortunately, the Perl community provides resources to 
help:  http://jobs.perl.org/

I like Perl; it's the only language where you can bless your

Eliminate software piracy:  use only FLOSS.
