any volunteers?

One of my CS 536 students made the following request:

It is a good idea; only one problem: I have written
a little perl once, but don't really know much about the language.
Would anyone care to give such a presentation?  (The discussion
sessions are on Tuesdays from 2:30-3:20.) 30-50 students
attend.
