use Perl

I'm happy to see the news from Jouke about the nascent Rotterdam Perl Mongers. If I get a chance, I'd like to visit the next time I'm in Europe. I have a lot of respect for Jouke.

He's doing interesting work with pVoice, a free interface for augmentive and assistive communications. I had the pleasure of talking to him at YAPC::Europe in Amsterdam, 2001, where he played an active role. I don't know quite how, but I still want to build a good Dutch voice, possibly from Rotterdam :) for his daughter Krista. She is a real inspiration, and she needs a voice that suits her -- that can't be stuck at one age. I expect it will be several voices, as she gets older, though they may come from the same voice donor.
