Subject: Re: Argh?! :) kEND, $end and kELSE in a simple program

And for everyone's reference, my code now looks like this:

puts 'Say something to the virtual hard-of-hearing Grandpa:'
counter=0
   while true
   said=gets.chomp
   year = (1930+rand(51))
   if said=='GOODBYE'
     counter+=1
     if counter==3
       break
  end
   elsif said !=said.upcase
     puts 'HUH?! SAY IT LOUDER!'
     counter-=1
   else
     puts 'NO, NOT SINCE '+year.to_s+'!'
     counter-=1
  end
end

and the problem with it is that it doesn't break after getting GOODBYE 
three times in a row...
