I have a similar history. I wrote my first web app in 96, in C on SunOS. Since then I've worked on all different types of platforms and at last count had used 13 different programming languages in that period. I recently went through a re-eval of what tech I wanted to be working with and ended up with Python. I tried to return to Perl but couldn't do it. Mainly it is because I'm back working on web projects and Perl's web frameworks aren't so nice. People worship CPAN, but I've never found it any more useful than SF or Googe Code. That is to say, useful yes, but amazing or worthy of awe? Not hardly. I will say though that Perl was pretty much the only language that made me smile and I eagerly await Perl 6.
