+1 for alternative languages like Clojure and Scala.
I recently (more or less) shut down my consulting business to do other things and since I no longer need (so much) to fit in with customer's tool chains, I decided on Clojure as a great general purpose language that is also a lot of fun to develop with. I could make the same comment about Scala or JRuby if I had chosen either of those fine languages.

Really, the JVM ecosystem rocks.
