This is because you are asking it to find the return value of method 
'person', but such a method does not exist. With sandy.address, you 
asked for the return value of method 'address'. This basically was 
returning the object 'address' for sandy.  To get the to_s method in 
person, just put -

puts sandy

That should work (not tested).
