"stop using other programming languages"... ;)

There's a bit of sarcastic joke in your message.  However.. the 
approach to take depends on their needs _and_ the current solution. 
Which languages do they use, or consider using?

My sales pitches towards:

	C/C++:	Lua offers faster development & prototyping

	Python:	No sales pitch, don't try to convert them.. (just live along)
	Ruby:	The same - unless it's an embedded / small constraints project?

	C#:		Promises, promises, changing API.  And: why do you need a 
*compiler*? ;)
	Java:	open source?  not really.. and again - what's the compiler for?

	make:	Want a _real_ programming language?  Take Lua + Hamster :)

Also, programming in Lua is more "fun"! ;)
