Agreed. However, the methods you mention use the block in order determine whether the predicate is satisfied or not. The action bit is still just returning true or false. The proposed 'nil?' uses the block to dispatch some unrelated behavior, and it doesn't return a boolean. I agree with David, et al. on this one. -- Lou.
