hehe that diagram is great. Looks like a game of hangman gone horribly 
wrong.

But the circle doesn't really close, as Object is an instance of Class, 
and so is Module, so there is some weird looping going around.

Also, on the left-hand side of the diagram, Object looks up methods in 
Class (because Object is an instance of Class), and Class inherits from 
Module, which inherits from Object. So effectively, all class objects 
inherit from Object twice (but obviously that doesn't happen, so there's 
some weird exception or workaround implemented I'm sure).
