True. But to have a knowledge of only AppleScript (or one shell) is
needlessly limiting. There are plenty of examples in C and Perl (not
web-related) that can be of use in AS.

But if all you're doing is AppleScripting (and I hope that no one is translating PERL or C code into Applescript, because they serve different purposes), what good does knowledge of C or PERL do you?
