Actually someone pointed out that Ruby has been around 10 yrs and no one 
heard of it until Rails :)   Thanks, interesting Craigslist posting.  
Still, when you do show of hands anywhere, it seems not many PHPers are 
using one of the available frameworks.   Most of the frameworks have 
only been out around a year so I suspect we need a big success story 
that people latch onto.
