Perl Second-Best Practices

So, you don't have time to read Damian Conway's "Perl Best Practices"  
book, to understand his "256 guidelines on the art of coding to help  
you write better Perl code"? Hear Randal Schwartz provide the  
executive summary, including pointing out where Randal disagrees with  
Damian, and why. This high-speed overview will help you understand  
"code layout, naming conventions, choice of data and control  
structures, program decomposition, interface design and  
implementation, modularity, object orientation, error handling,  
testing, and debugging". But using shorter words.
