Perhaps it is this way for symmetry with load? 
  http://www.rubycentral.com/book/ref_m_kernel.html#Kernel.load
I found myself moving alot of declarations back and forth between
require and load while working on a project using IOWA, changing things
at runtime by replacing a require on a template page with load and going
to the page in the browser.
