My pleasure. However, please keep all replies on-list as the
discussion continues, because this also helps people who are
attempting to find the information on the web locate it in the
archives.

Yes, sir. And don't worry.... I'm lazy as well. Just ask Pierre
Joye on the Internals list (re: Gmail quoting)! ;-P

Python is a good language. I like it a lot for command line
programming, but it's not as prolific and well-accepted as PHP is when
considering a web language.

Yes, PHP5 went from being a crap-tastic piece of frustration when
it was a release candidate to being one of the absolute best
web-usable languages and versions (discounting CGI access, for those
of you lawyers out there!) to exist to date, in my opinion. There's
tremendous extensibility with very little overhead, and virtually zero
financial layout.

No joke.... like VB.NET. I can't see the sense in having to
define something in three lines (Ruby) when I can just use a built-in
construct to do the same in one line (PHP).

Yeah. In English, we'd say "boo-yaa!" ;-P

With your help and that of others continuing the spirit of the
project, it will. Just make sure that, after you've taken enough from
the PHP community (and the open source community as a whole) to get
yourself going, you give back to help others learn as well. That's
how the heart beats in open source.
