Whether it's webpages or web apps, nothing else is better than PHP for getting something small up and running quickly. That's the whole point of why Marco feels "addicted". I really wish there were something better in this context, but there isn't.
(And what do you mean, "ex-PHP developer"?? I've never heard someone call themselves an "ex-C" developer or an "ex-Java" developer. You make PHP sound like a cult or religion, instead of just a popular programming tool.)
