Actually, I wonder about this from a non-technical guy's perspective as well (my work has mostly been in implementation and support). I have listed basic experience with a language on my resume, and I know that is a useful little nugget to non-technical hiring managers. When asked, I am pretty clear about the small scale of things I've built, but I still wonder if it is a little disingenuous because I don't actually know squat about data structures or algorithms, and I am not a competent programming problem-solver. (Sorry if this is a little off-topic.)
