By the way: The "Ruby Core" poster is known to
be inaccurate. Feel free to send me corrections.
I'll get around to fixing it soon.

Well, I find the red arrows (especially the "Class --> Module --> Object -->
Class" loop) a little confusing.  What is a red arrow from `a' to `b'
supposed to mean?

  a.superclass == b
  b.superclass == a
  a.class == b
  a.kind_of?(b)

These are all very different things!  I don't think we should confuse the
`class', `superclass', and `kind_of?' relationships.  (This is what my OSCON
talk is about, btw.  :)
