Congratulations to Damian on a great opening in Ex 6. Anybody can spoof the
classic detective novel setup, but it takes real talent to have it actually
make sense in the context of a technical document.

Or is this not what you were asking? Ex 6 wasn't a presentation...

it is online and damian never gave any performance on it. the detective
stuff is in E6's prologue. find it on perl.com where all the other A's

Well, it would be nice to have it at:
http://dev.perl.org/perl6/exegesis/
But the following from the O'Reilly user group newsletter may help
***Exegesis 6
Damian Conway explains how the new syntax and semantics of subroutines
in Perl 6 make for cleaner, simpler, and more powerful code.
