Re: Animal mascot for RPG

Eric,

>Nominations for an animal mascot for RPG are now open!

How about a Phoenix? 

RPG used to be considered dead, yet with RPG IV it seems to be rising
from the ashses and taking on a new life...

Or from another perspective, we could use a cat.  Even after being
pronounced dead, it gets another life.  Or at least nine of them.
This should last until RPG IX dies.

On another note, why is it that the "Report" in RPG seems to make
everyone think RPG is a dead language, yet PERL can get by with it and
be considered good for internet enablement?

Does nobody know that PERL stands for Practical Extraction and Report
Language?

If PERL can do more than produce reports, why not RPG?
