Subject: problem with date.succ

I'm having difficulty with a small program I'm writing dealing with
dates.  I've written the calendar class below.  It works just fine
when calling getMonth for all months EXCEPT NOVEMBER.  Interrupting
the call while in irb shows that it is busy in the reduce method of
Rational, called from Date.  Any ideas?

Thanks,
Russ

require 'date'
class Calendar
   def initialize(year=Date.today.year)
      @year = year
   end

   def getMonth(mo)
      dt = Date.new(@year, mo, 1)
      i = dt.month
      list = Array.new
      while i != (mo+1) % 12
         wk = getWeek(dt.month, dt.day)
         dt = wk[6].succ
         i = dt.month
         list.push(wk)
      end
      list
   end

   def getWeek(mo, dy)
      dt = Date.new(@year, mo, dy)
      dt -= dt.wday
      list = Array.new
      for i in 0..6
         list.push dt
         dt = dt.succ
      end
      list
   end

   def getDay(mo, dy)
      Date.new(@year, mo, dy)
   end
end
