Subject: Ruby String: How do I strip anything between two parenthesis

Hi,

Given a string that contains one or more substrings within parenthesis,
such as:

myString = 'This is (variable length substring #1) (variable length
substring #2) string'

How would I effectively strip out anything between any two parenthesis
and replace it with a blank (eliminating such substrings) such that it
would look like:

myString = 'This is a string'

I'm assuming the answer would be a combination of the string "remove"
command and the use of regular expressions but can't seem to get it to
work.

Thanks for any help you can offer.

My Best,

Frank
