RE: PHP Is Better Than Ruby

Hi,
This will give you an idea of how much fun it has been for me to try to get 
this OO stuff into my head. 

I used to get all upset because when I went from Cobol to LotusScript, which is 
almost exactly like VB, I got all upset when I had to write

x = 6

rather than

move 6 to x. 

So compared to Cobol, PHP isn't a whole lot of typing. Then when you go from 
PHP to Python, you get much less typing. Then when you go to Ruby, even less.

It seems like Java, at least in my very small education, is maybe wordy enough 
to make my need for words somewhat happy.

I loved the part about getters and setters I almost laughed outloud at work.

This is a sarcastic article that actually makes the case for Ruby being 
a superior language to PHP!
