Subject: String.insert newbie question

Hello,

I've only been checking out Ruby for a couple of days, but today I came
across this problem.

If I do this:

#!/usr/bin/env ruby -w

string1 = "abc"
string2 = string1

string2.insert(-1, "def")

puts string1
puts string2

Then the result is:

abcdef
abcdef


How come string1 gets changed?!?

Thanks,

Marco
