If you tell me what in the hell Jython is, then I guess you are.

Have you used VisualPython? And was it worth it?

Jython = Java + Python - a version of Python written entirely in Java.

I intend to learn Python someday, but I'll probably try Ruby first...

Ruby supposedly "brings the joy back to programming." There was an article on it in a recent Linux magazine.

So that's one person's opinion - try it and decide for yourself. You'll find someone that vehemently hates anything.

And you will find that anyone who vehemently hates Perl is probably a moron. :P

It has been a while since I've had "joy" in programming. I blame it on all this VB lately.
