Oh oh and don’t let singular “a” confuse you regarding READMEs.

One of Perl’s delights is the reams of lovingly hand-crafted documentation that accompanies every release, only a perldoc perl away.

On the spot? I could give you roughly four interpretations of John Cage 4'33"

But in casual conversation I can easily fill that same amount of time with fantasy illustrators of the 19th and 20th century, knitting techniques, musical trivia tangents, and maybe some code.
