I repeat:
Encoding is for i/o; in the Perl space, text must be Perl character strings.
Write that 100 times, display it next to your monitor(s), record it and play it whilst sleeping on your ipod for one week, have it tattooed on your fingers, and in no time you'll be known as the encoding guru in your company.
