Ya know what? It originally was about Ruby. But then I changed my mind, 
and decided to try Java, which was ok. Then I tried UCB Logo and it 
rocks. And wtf does hyperbolic mean? Because whatever it does, it 
probably doesn't have anything to do with weird monsters hiding under 
bridges. If I was a troll, I would be green, or blue, or some other 
weird color. And I assure you, I AM WHITE! Well, slightly tanned. And I 
am not demanding you pay me to cross a bridge. Besides, the Religion 
conversation had nothing to do with Ruby, that went on for over 100 
posts.
