Subject: Calling super from some other method

Say I have:

    class A
      def method
        puts "A#method"
      end
    end

    class B < A
      def method
        other_method
      end
      def other_method
        method     # <- want A#method here
      end
    end

In B#other_method, I want to call A#method.

Within B#method, I can call A#method with super.  But I can't figure
out how to do the same within B#other_method.  In C++, I'd just
statically qualify the class name in the source (A::method), but I
don't know how to do this in Ruby.
