Thank you for the advice. Been in the corporate world too long, I guess. Need to work on the portfolio.

I'll also try to get out of PHP. It would be nice to do something different for a change.

That escalated quickly. :)

If you didn't know, Drupal's written in PHP, and the upcoming Drupal 8 uses the Symfony framework. I always recommend learning new languages, but there's no pressing need for you to get out of PHP to move forward!

You're quite welcome, best of luck. Also, I didn't mean to suggest that you should move away from PHP, only that you should add other technologies to your toolbox. PHP experience is and will continue to be valuable, no matter what the 20-something brogrammers say.
