You know, I've often thought that Ruby would not be so good if there
were no language barrier:  What better motivation for making it
completely understandable and have so few surprises?  Names are well
chosen and not just defended in the documentation.  Methods do what
you'd expect, so incomplete docs are less of a hindrance than it might
be otherwise.

I find this to hold particularly true in the ruby core, but the dRb
module is similarly elegant, as are others.
