Um, this is a tiny little diversion here prompted by something that came up 
on perl-beginners, of all places... it's not possible in perl 5 to make a 
reference to an array or hash slice without doing some copying.  It would 
be nice if perl 6 made that possible.  Maybe it already does and I haven't 
grokked that from the exegeses yet.

That's it.  We now return you to the Clinton discussion ("it depends what 
the meaning of 'is' is...")
