FYI, expression "true" refers to the same object on multiple invocations:

irb(main):001:0> a = true
=> true
irb(main):002:0> a.instance_variable_set "@foo", ["bar", "baz"]
=> ["bar", "baz"]
irb(main):003:0> b = true
=> true
irb(main):004:0> b.instance_variable_get "@foo"
=> ["bar", "baz"]
irb(main):005:0>
