That sounds like a good brief description of an example, but like I said, for people to get that "a ha" moment, it's got to be written up so it can be presented right there in front of them. My current language is already fairly useful for "Any parsing operation which needs to keep in mind state" ... if you want users to look at Perl 6, then it's going to take concrete written-out examples. No in-jokes or historical anecdotes; just actually show how Perl 6 does it better. Over and over, until it sinks in. People who don't already know Perl 6 are not going to just take your word for it. They need to be shown easy-to-follow examples of Perl 6 solving problems that are more difficult to solve in their current language.
