Subject: noob question about CASTING (yes, I know)

ok, well i have os_hardware_combos.send("platform_id") which returns 1
and i have Platforms.find(1)
which returns a value i want
but if i do Platforms.find(os_hardware_combos.send("platform_id")) it says, 
no id supplied to the find method

The only thing I can think of would be the 1 that is returned is not 
numeric?  Although this didn't seem very ruby like.

Any help?
