My primary language is PHP, but I have a good knowledge of the 
following languages:

* PHP (including PHP Internals)
* C
* C++
* C#
* ECMAScript
* SQL

At one time I knew these languages:

* Perl
* Java

I've been learning D for the past two weeks.  It's like C++ except that 
it doesn't make me want to shove knitting needles into my eyes.
