 I don't deny that Ruby may be a good alternative, but that's surely the
 worst possible recommendation one could muster. Not so much that you
 suggest Ruby, but that you do it without any quantification of *why* Ruby
 is a good alternative to Perl. You may as well slap an orange from a
 child's hand and tell him to play with fire instead, without explanation.
