Awesome.  I was expecting a way to 'workaround' the freeze.  Trying to
understand what is going..   I can't 'unfreeze' the hash/object, but I
can 're-assign' a constant (hence the warning)..  So you assign the
original constant to new object/Hash which is a copy of the original
(dup).  You can then change the value of interext and 're-freeze' (for
good measure).

Probably don't have the accurate terminology but hope I got the idea.
Thanks a lot!
