Author Erik Davis talks to Perl creator Larry Wall.
"He has quoted scripture before crowds of hackers. He glides from notions of

And his progeny is just about everywhere on the Web.
"Larry Wall, a linguist and self-effacing polymath, is the creator of
the popular and ubiquitous Perl programming language."
