Thanks Robert, str.scan(/A/) does what I wanted.

Sorry for the confusion with the last A issue.  I was messing with
various regex patterns and some of them were greedy enough, took some
of my brain cells away and made me think stupid things.

But str.scan(/A/) has made me regain my faith in ruby's regular
expressions.  Not that I was particularly skeptic, but was merely
stuck!

Thanks again.
