You do realise that ActiveRecord automatically creates a method with the 
same name as the column, at run time - so you don't need to create one 
at all?

Even with an apparently empty definition like

class Foo < ActiveRecord::Base
end

you can still do

f = Foo.new
f.bar = "hello"
f.baz = "world"

(assuming that your database has a table called 'foos' with columns 
'bar' and 'baz')
