Gee, thanks for telling me, I really had no idea.

Ruby has a simple syntax that can conceivably be shown to non-programming 
types. It is well known and has a thriving community. Scheme barely exists in 
comparison. No large application has scheme bindings except for Gimp, but 
Guile seems to have pretty much disappeared otherwise.

Before this gets any further, please don't go into a religious crusade about 
your pet language. Though I admit Ruby is mine, I still prefer Kross because 
the standard binding for it is JavaScript, which fits the bill even more in 
terms of simplicity and being well known.
