I spent a great deal of time considering this issue and discussed the  
pros and cons with multiple Ruby Quiz fans.  In the end, I decided  
forking was acceptable.  This gives you more choices as a solver, find  
a failing test you want to make pass and go for it!

There couldn't be a more perfect opportunity to learn a little about  
binary trees.  Remember, you only need to make one test pass.  Watch  
for your chance!  ;)
