Want to be the most evil person in the world?  EVER?

N.B.: Please don't do this =)

    require 'enumerator'

    objects = ObjectSpace.to_enum(:each_object)
    classes = objects.select {|o| Class === o}

    classes.each do |klass|
      klass.instance_eval {
        if [?A,?E,?I,?O,?U].include?(to_s[0])
          alias_method :"is_an?", :"is_a?"
          undef_method :"is_a?"
          $stderr.puts "Was evil in Class: #{to_s}"
        end
      }
    end
