I would love to watch this, but with low bandwidth the buffering every ~5 secs is killing me...and would take WAY too long to get through it...I would love to be able to download it...any thoughts?

Talk was incorrect regarding arrays of regexp objects in perl

We've had this seven years now. Please catch up.
Don't talk about Perl if you don't know it
by
brian d foy
use your ignornace if Perl to support Ruby:
* Perl sigils do not denote type: they denote context. $scalar is a
scalar, but $array[0] works with an array, and $hash{foo} works with a
hash. @array[0,1] works with an array, but @hash{'foo', 'bar'}. It's
not type, what you're doing with it. You can read more about that in
Learning Perl.
* Perl regular expressions aren't operators: the match operator, m//, is an
operator, but that's not the thing that's the pattern. The stuff
inside the match operator is the pattern, but the pattern is not the
match operator. You can create a regular expression without the match
operator with the qr() quoting mechanism.
You'll eventually find that Ruby, if it gets as popular as Perl, will be treated as poorly as Perl as newbies learn by hit-and-miss. Newbies will invent their own systems to explain the portions of Ruby that they know and that they think they understand. Just wait :)

I really like to learn from these Ruby presentations since I am unable to be at the conferences for now.
