Subject: Looking for a publicly accessible SOAP example

I realize that SOAP is dead.  I didn't realize this until this week.
But, I think it is certainly true.

I have spent 2 days Googling for a working Ruby SOAP example, and it
seems that all of the SOAP services are offline.  Even my company
seems to have no employees tending to the SOAP services I am supposed
to be utilizing.  (At least said employees aren't answering emails.)
Before I declare that my company's internal SOAP service is "broken".
I'd like to have success at using Ruby with SOAP somewhere.  Does that
make sense?  I want to have one success on any example WSDL so that I
can apply the principals to our private WSDL.  Once I have done that,
I will feel comfortable saying, "I know how to consume SOAP, and our
SOAP is broken."  Until then, all I know is "I have never had success
consuming any SOAP anywhere."

Please advise.
