About an hour ago, I saw Rael Dornfest's musings on Python. As I read it, I thought to myself, "Sounds like Rael would really like Ruby," but didn't think any more about it.

But just now NNW updated Chad Fowler's blog, and I see that Chad thought exactly the same thing! Rael, if one more person had the same thought, I think you're bound to give Ruby a try.

(Of course, I'm not sure this is really that significant; after all, every language bigot always thinks, "Oh, <my favorite language> would be perfect for that!" at the least provocation. But I've seen Rael's Perl code, and he really does need to give Ruby a try. And the source to RubLog might be a great place to start. :-)
