Where exactly is this "doco" of yours. I have learned about this stuff
on page 226 paragraph 7.1.12 in Mats and Flanagan's "The Ruby
Programming Language", long before some obscure web pages like ours here
have explained anything. Heck, there isn't even a reference to Structs
in the index there! Similarly in D. Thomase's 'PickAxe' on page 392,
there is nothing really worth mentioning. Only when you cut your teeth
in, and experiment you realize, its limitations and advantages.  I sense
way too much hubris here. Ryan, must really hurt when you expose your
blunder:)

Cheers
