It seems to me that we have a significant raise in "newby" posts in the last two or three months. This means Ruby's momentum increases and it's attracting more and more people! Folks, this is *great* news! And this is such a great place to be! I hope, we can keep it like that.
/me joins the cheering! How could we every complain when we have Ruby?

Glad to know you guys don't mind our nuby ruby posts! Actually, one of
the things that I have liked about this group is the relative lack of
RTFM rude responses! And I hope you are really sincere about dealing
with more of us - I just disovered Ruby /Rails and have been
evangelizing like crazy. Heard from one of my friends that a mutual
friend that I had told about Ruby has been coming down periodically to
his office to talk about the latest cool thing in the language that he
had discovered.
Another reason I like Ruby - used it as a (at least partially
legitimate) reason with my wife to get a new Powerbook and TextMate!
Truly programmer heaven.
You're one of the people that has made ruby-talk such a great place to be.
Sorry, I just had to say that (to quote someone

It does actually make a better programming base of operations
than I would expect. My powerbook is my first ever mac. It
makes me glad I bought it before I got married. I don't think
it ever would have happened in the reverse order.

I'm new here too and I agree! I've asked questions on less friendly lists...
I guess everyone is in such a good mood because ruby syntax is so nice?
I bet I won't even get scolded for this "me too" post
