Well, I wouldn't know about that. I never got far enough in Perl to call
myself a programmer in it. I have looked at Ruby (after a lot of time
with Python) and my main reaction was 'Why bother?'.  It seemed to me
to be be just another way of  doing the same thing without much extra. 

I agree with you about Forth. It was a brilliant language. I don't
suppose it is still around much now.
