Every language has your PROS and CONS...

Sort of what I was trying to say the other day, but it was late and I had a bus to catch :)
In fact, I'd extend it to say: Know how to programme and language will not matter. If you know how to do that, you can pick up any language and adapt to it's syntax rather quickly to put something basic together. You won't be pro at it unless you use it regularly, however most have basic things in common ie,. objects, variables, control logic, loops, etc,...
So really what it comes down to is as simple as knowing how to programme, it's completely language independent, it's a way of thinking and approaching problems, analytically.
Finally to address those that would claim: "I use X language to code in and it can do anything, so stop criticising and don't dismiss it".
The point you are missing is not what can be done, hell some guy wrote http server in postscript for the love of god, so obviously you can do anything with anything. The point is use what makes the job easier and faster.
As for who uses what, when it all comes to, I couldn't care less. It's all suggestions to help you, not attack you. At the end of the day, it's meant to be fun.
