One school of thought is that a good code should be written in such a 
way that the need for internal comments is drastically reduced (small 
methods with limited responsibility, a lot of attention to names, and a 
detailed explanation with uisage examples in the beginning of a class).

I'd say, Ruby code of most popular programs is a great pleasure to read, 
even when comments are absent.
RDoc for some of these things (even many in the standard library) is a 
different story though :)
