I once had the pleasure of following Damian's presentation techniques course. A really good course that i can recommend to every programmer and engineer. Perl and me however do not get along. Yet still looking forward to see where perl 6 will go.

Well, you can always try Klingon. [1]

1. I was present when he introduced programming in Klingon -- via Perl. Perhaps a different kind of "presentation" technique -- but it was certainly up to snuff.

I was not amenable to learning Klingon, but I did have a certain appreciation for its imperative style.

Cant find which one it is, but a talk about perl6 grammar dsl/lib was very inspiring. Very very very.

As someone who's been distantly following Perl6 from its inception, the new RE grammars are the most exciting thing to me. It's the one time I've seen a YACC type thing and thought, "ah, this is how it should be."

I predict that if Perl6 ever becomes somewhat released/stable/fast we'll start seeing a bunch of compilers/transpilers written in it.
