Roger.  No problem.  I'm no Ruby expert, but have used it at work
just a bit.  I currently avoid Python due to the strict spacing for
formatting which just bugs me.  I think I've had to only hack on one
or two Python scripts so far.  Stick with what you know and what
works.

BTW:  There are Rails-type frameworks for many languages as well, so
you can get the advantages of Rails without having to switch to
Ruby.
