=head1 DESCRIPTION

A multi-lingual insult generator, which takes pluggable backends to
generate insults in the language of your choice, written in honour of
International Talk Like A Pirate Day on Sept 19th 2003
L<http://www.talklikeapirate.com/>.  An example backend is provided
which implements the 'pirate' language.

Usage is very simple.  Instantiate an Acme::Scurvy::Whoreson::BilgeRat
object, passing a single named parameter - 'language' - to the constructor.
This tells it to use the A::S::W::B::Backend::[language] plugin module.
If that is missing, we assume you want the 'pirate' backend.

To generate an insult, simply mention your object in any place where it
will be turned into a string.  It uses the AWESOME POWER of operator
overloading to achieve this heroic feat.
