In this array, *:fred* is a symbol and *:* only is notation for a
symbol when you puts it.

You can do as follow:

>     puts k.to_s
> end

It this code snippet, I convert each symbol to string, so the
*:* disappear (just for demo)

You can try the following code fragment to more clearly:

1.9.2p320 :016 > person =3D :fred
 =3D> :fred
1.9.2p320 :017 > person.class
 =3D> Symbol
1.9.2p320 :018 > person.to_s
 =3D> "fred"
1.9.2p320 :019 > person.to_s.class
 =3D> String
1.9.2p320 :020 > person.to_s.intern
 =3D> :fred
1.9.2p320 :021 > person.to_s.intern.class
 =3D> Symbol
