http://www.ruby-doc.org/stdlib-2.0/libdoc/net/http/rdoc/Net/HTTP.html documents a URI object being passed to Net::HTTP::Get.new and Net::HTTP::Post.new a few times.

passing a URI to  Net::HTTP::Post.new or  Net::HTTP::Get.new throws a NoMethodError as the URI doesn't have an empty method.

(({1.9.3p385 :040 > uri = URI('http://www.example.com/search.cgi')
 => #<URI::HTTP:0x000000024ed098 URL:http://www.example.com/search.cgi> 
1.9.3p385 :041 > req = Net::HTTP::Post.new(uri)

}))

also fails in ruby 1.8.7 (2010-01-10 patchlevel 249) [x86_64-linux]
