I would like to leave it open for discussion for a while. When I said, that my 
example (and all the others too) may confuse someone, it's an assumption. For 
information only I opened a question thread in german Ruby forum with my example 
and the output. My question there was, if the result reflects the expectations 
(I used radio buttons with "yes", "more yes", "more no", "no", "don't understand 
the example") - comment may be added too - I'm really curious.

I would like to know what people think, when they are confronted with such a 
code, that they didn't write. I don't know if it is realy dangerous, but I would 
  like to leave this point open for discussion for a while.

On the other side it may be useful to think about some additional syntactic 
sugar for lazy evaluation of parameters.

This is nor proposal for Ruby 1.9.1, but later versions.
