I so agree.  When I first came to Ruby, blocks were probably my  
biggest stumbling block.  I got them down just enough not to think  
they were weird every time I used one, but then didn't pay much  
attention to them.  Much later, when I wanted to move down the path  
of enlightenment, I found myself back at blocks.  I really believe  
they are the key to great Ruby.
