That's true: it was only an example i've wrote to test the private
thing in Ruby...

I don't want to speak about explicit hacking of well designed classes
 anymore, but only about the fact that we can _accidentally_ overload
 a private method by extending the class or call it from a subclass as
 i've done in my example. At least, in such cases, Ruby should issue a
 warning message (dunno if it's possible to disable such a thing).
