Sorry, I seem to have mis-read your initial question. In order to do  
what you asked, you would have to make them an array, though (unless  
some of the plans for Ruby 1.9 are realized, which I sincerely hope  
they are not). Maybe if you give a use-case, I could be a little more  
helpful, though.
