Is this whereI wish I'd gotten around to setting up my direct debit? I've got to go donate by hand now :-/
BTW, re: that code timing thing earlier? Perl may be slow, but it sure is neat...
$s=time;while($x<4E8){$x++;}die(time-$s);
Edit: 598 Seconds on my box if anyone cares

thing is though,at 41 characters it feels a little bloated... I can get it down to 39 characters with
$s=time;for(0..4E8){$x++;}die(time-$s);
Can anyone do it shorter?
