Only 62 lines of Perl code.  That certainly would be impressive
if that little 'effort' would amount to so much.

I haven't tried or tested it myself, I still need to install an
HTTP server on my nodes (I've been meaning to do so, for my new
and upcoming website; but, unfortunately, I haven't had the time
yet to do so).  Are you planning to give it a try yourself?
