Because that way you need to change to the directory where the files 
are, before running the program.

What would be really useful would be a way to find the path to the 
currently executing Ruby file. Then you could stick that on the 
LOAD_PATH to let the program find all the other files.

(I had a look, but couldn't find such a thing.)
