Talks I would love to attend, if only somebody would give them.
Perl in PostgreSQL

Under-appreciated Perl Idioms
Gems of Perl-programming practice that ought to be used more frequently.

What I do with my Logitech G15 Keyboard and how perl helps me do it.
How Perl Saved my Life
It would be great to hear anecdotes of real-life situations where Perl swooped in and saved the day!
The Perl community: We're not grep!

Please share. Tell your story about it.
