Hmm... I'm not sure there... oh wait... Could it be confused since
your file is (also) named 'mechanize'?:

$ cp i.rb mechanize.rb
$ ruby mechanize.rb
./mechanize.rb:5: uninitialized constant Mechanize (NameError)
	from /Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in
`gem_original_require'
	from /Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in `require'
	from mechanize.rb:3

Yeah, I think that's it.  Try renaming your script.
