Subject: Re: method v. local assignment: parsing rule for this code?

Ok, the following code exhibits the problem I was trying to demonstrate:

class Roulette
  def method_missing(name, *args)
    person = name.to_s.capitalize

    3.times do
      number = rand(10) + 1
      puts "#{number}..."
    end

    #puts "#{person} got a #{number}"

  end
end

Roulette.new.xxx

If I uncomment the commented line, I get an infinite loop.  Why?  I'm
pretty sure that is a local variable assignment v. setter problem.
