Wait a minute, is that "atmel" in your e-mail address the one I think of ?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmel

If so please thank the AVR gurus for making the best quality/price
microcontrollers in the world. I'm an happy user of an atmega8 and Python in
this project: http://www.liberlab.net/
If by any chance your going to europython 2006 I'll be glad to show you
that.

I've just been looking at your blog and I've seen the "Perl, the language I
love to hate".
Personally I love this little cartoon about Perl :

And if you have Perl working colleges you want to protect from I found this
on the web  ;)
