Subject: Re: Ruby disadvantages over Mind  &  Ruby  Advantages over Perl

I really love plurality...(to  hide myself in a minority =)

Why are we always trying to convince people about ruby capabilities ?.......

Here at work there are some guys writing perl,php,c code .....
I tried to convince them about ruby capabilities, I got tired
I became more productive...and  now  they are  writing code and training 
'their brains' and I am writing this mail(after 1 hour reading).

"Perl brings fun to programming".sub("to","to ruby")

=)
