Subject: getting reference to calling object

hi,

is there a way of getting a reference to the object that called the
current method, from within that method?

e.g.
class A
	def foo
		b = B.new
		b.hello
	end
end

class B
	def hello
		calling_object = ....		
	end	
end

what i'm after is something like Kernel.caller, but which talks about
live objects, rather than the places they are found in the source
files.

thanks,
martin.
