I learned to program with Ruby, and used Ruby+Rails exclusively for 2 years until I learned Java, C++, C#, and Python. I thought I was just a Ruby guy, but once I was exposed to other languages I realized that once you know how to program, the language you program in doesn't matter. Sure some languages are better at specific tasks, but they're all just tools; if you can use one you can probably pick up another one with very little difficulty (this also assumes were talking about object oriented languages here--transition from OO to a functional language is a bit different).
