Get used to it. This guy is clearly here to stay. Every day it's a new language -- Ruby du jour. And none of it has much to do with what we unenlightened people insist on referring to as "Ruby". Silly us. Sigh. I've kill-filed him, but apparently the attempt to get rid of even replies *to* him didn't work. I'll check my .procmailrc again. And yes, I do know that this reply is going to the whole list. At this point I don't think mentioning this person as a problem is terribly shocking. I do wish he'd find another language to troll in.... Perhaps he can try to convince the Java community to remove explicit type declarations from the language, or try to get golfers to use a pyramid-shaped ball, or something.
