I ported a well-known Perl library to Ruby. It looked terrible and didn't work at all.

Turns out the problem is that I don't know Ruby.

I suppose I can't prove to you that I know Perl very well any more than you can prove to me that you actually tried to port a library over to a language without even bothering to learn the language. The latter sounds kind of stupid to me.
