Anyone heard of using php as programming language for PICs ?

With totally no experience in PHP, I had to modify a php program.
After browsing the web, I found what I needed and managed to modify the
program,

But during browsing the web, the above (maybe ridiculuous) question came
into my mind,
why ?
What I understand from PHP:
- it's open source
- it's used by everyone, including children and "housewifes"
- it's despiced by theoretical software guys, because it hasn't a closed
definition
(or is it because of the previous item ;-)
- it must be good, because it runs on every webserver (both unix and
windows)
- despite it's open source, there's still just one definition/derivate
- installling and get it running on my PC, took me less then 2 minutes
- the user can choose between C-like, Pascal-like (maybe others) syntax

Ok, the negative point is that it's designed for generating webpages.
But I also use a hammer to drive a srew !
So why not use PHP for PICs, ... ??
