Oops - I used block_given?, which is a Ruby 1.6 method. On 1.4, it
isn't defined, so it calls method_missing, and ....

On 1.4, use iterator? instead.

Online at:

   http://www.rubycentral.com/ref/ref_c_object.html#method_missing

or in print in a wonderful, fabulous, not-to-be-missed new book that
will be available in less than two months now ;-)


You might also be interested in a couple of articles, one on
reflection, the other on invoking methods dynamically, at

   http://www.rubycentral.com/articles


At some point we'll get the top page of that web site working ;-(
