Too funny!

Which brings me to my point in this rather interesting exchange.

Having wandered the halls of Basic, Fortran, COBOL, C, C++, Pascal,
Forth, Java, etc, etc I have noted that each language introduced me
to new concepts and modes of thought.

I have enjoyed that tremendously but when I want to get something
done (these days) I reach for Ruby.

It suites the way I think, the way I write code and I rather enjoy
it's almost playful antagonism to burdensome formalisms.

I like my tools light, sharp and powerful. Today, that means Ruby.

Tomorrow, it may mean something else but I haven't seen it yet...

(And BTW, Java should have been smothered in it's crib)

Regards
