The hard part about learning new languages for me is purging all the old information I have. For example, Perl sigils messed me up for a long time because other languages don't prefix variables and stuff with a symbol. It felt so wrong!

PHP does. Not the the extent of Perl, but it does.

MEL does as well. Tcl too (sometimes).
