    Really interesting paper. Just scanning it now
    
    on page 30: Are you sure you don't mean:
    s/[^0-9a-zA-Z]//g (remove any character that is not a (US-ASCII) letter
    or digit) instead of
    s/^[0-9][a-z][A-Z]//g (remove the first three characters of a line if it
    starts with a digit, a lower case letter and then an uppercase letter)
