There's definitely something to be said for cross-language conceptual
polinization.

But that's not exclusive to Rails... I think being versed in multiple
languages causes this inherently.  I came to PHP from a long history
with Java and Struts, so I tend to approach things in an OO-manner
with a heavy focus on Unit Testing and MVC.

Stealing... er.. sharing good ideas and lessons learned only helps.
