Subject: Re: returning more than one value

1, 2 is not a valid expression using ruby syntax. Use something like
the following:

def my_action
  [1, 2]
end

first, last = my_action

You return multiple values simply by returning an array which can then
be automatically split across a series of variables using Ruby's
parallel assignment.
