Subject: Re: send() with a block?

Or to put it another way:

def my_method
  p block_given?
end

def my_send # imitating send
  my_method
end

my_send # => false
my_send { :wibble } # => false

def my_send_2
  send :my_method
end

my_send_2 # => false
my_send_2 { :wibble } # => false

It's entirely consistent: false in all four cases.

The actual method "send" can take a block, and it passes it to the 
method being invoked. If it didn't, it would be impossible to pass a 
block to a method when invoking it using send.
