Perl in Germany (Score:2)

by ethan (3163)

Instances of the string "Perl" in everyday life. I remember seeing an image of a European road sign pointing to "Perl". I think it was German, but I can't find it.

I can't help you with the road-sign (although I didn't look too closely), but a little wine village on the banks of the river Mosel is called Perl. They even have a website [perl-mosel.de] with a pretty emblem.

  I looked closer, but even some quality time with Google didn't bring up anything. I wonder what the look on the receptionist's face will be if I call the town hall and ask them if someone has a photo of the road sign.

      Image 3 shows that Apache is on the same road as Perl. :-)

        Or rather, 5/6 of Apache is on the same road as Perl. I guess the other 1/6 is dedicated to e-business.
