A side note. This thing bugged me too, but then I noticed this way:

  module MyInsanelyLongModuleName
   def self.module_method
     puts self, type
   end
  end

Are there any gotchas wrt using just "self." instead of
"MyInsanelyLongModuleName." when defining a module method like this? If
not, I'm rewiring my brain to use this exclusively :-)
