That is rather odd, and seems to go counter to my point above.
Do you use
  class Object; def self.myLoad #etc
or the singleton method way
  def Object.myLoad #etc
of defining the class method?
----------------------------

class Object
  def Object.myLoad
    ...
  end
end

Object.myLoad # Works just fine.

That doesn't seem counter to your point at all.  If this isn't really the
Object class, but another one of the same name, then when I type
'Object.myLoad', it is using the same class.  Basically, it seems I have no
access to the real Object class.  Maybe this is a good thing, since it would
still be around for other scripts?  (I think?)

Consider this:

def myLoad
  ...
end

myLoad # Works just fine.

However, myLoad isn't accessible from other methods/scopes.  Is there any
way at all that I can set up this function so that all I can just type
'myLoad' anywhere I want and have it work?
