Heh.  Isn't it great?  Ruby is fun to write, and Matz is fun to read.  :)

I guess one reason I like Ruby is because I agree with him on so many 
points.  Programming should be flexible and fun.  You shouldn't think too 
much about what the computer is doing under the hood.  Doing something 
simple should be simple.  I also like that he's very honest that Ruby is 
designed by him for him, and if it works well for other people that's 
great, but it really is his language and if it doesn't act the way you 
expect, want, or hope... well make your own language!
