Well, it could be sort of possible, but partly pointless:
You could start a ruby process that then loads a file, but before  
loading, read the file. You could then create objects that contain  
the code (as a string, probably) for classes in the original file.
Then when you ask an object, "what class are you?", you will have a  
little clipboard (or PDA) to lookup his/her class name and fetch your  
class_code string.

 From there it would be possible to alter the class_code string, then  
re"load" that class into the interpreter...
circular? could be
pointless? maybe
fun? probably
