And I can prove it! Give 5 minutes and check wikipedia. Or take a look
at  http://james-iry.blogspot.com/2009/05/brief-incomplete-and-mostly-wrong.html

"1995 - Yukihiro "Mad Matz" Matsumoto creates Ruby to avert some
vaguely unspecified apocalypse that will leave Australia a desert run
by mohawked warriors and Tina Turner. The language is later renamed
Ruby on Rails by its real inventor, David Heinemeier Hansson. [The bit
about Matsumoto inventing a language called Ruby never happened and
better be removed in the next revision of this article - DHH]."
