Both regular expressions and Perl are cool...
unfortunatly, the two combined can quickly 
degenerate into line noise.  :)

Still, you have to love them for their raw
power.  There's a way you can comment the
regular expresion as you are writing it;  I
tend to use that myself.  I can't recall the
syntax right now but it's very useful.

No other real point to this message I guess.

And now for something completely different...
