I keep hearing this stated, but I don't see very many use cases put 
forth where it is clearly better to use a dynamic language. For me, I'm 
not familiar with any dynamic languages to a sufficient degree to ever 
get an advantage from using them, but if I see a sufficient use case, 
I'll change that.
