I also do not understand many of the discussions on the list, but I
found the people on this list very friendly and helpful when I had
asked questions - sometimes very stupid questions.

If a newbie list can render the same kind of service as the
perl-beginners list It will be a very good thing, but then it will ask
a lot of the more experienced members of this list to answer all the
newbie questions on a separate list.

I would certainly subscribe to such a list.

      us according to our iniquities. For as the heaven is 
      high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward

      us."                  Psalms 103:10-12
