Subject: why can't I access my instance variables?

I'm having trouble accessing instance variables directly.  What's wrong 
with this...

class Level1
   def initialize
     @var1='var1 set.'
   end

   def printvar1
     @var1
   end
end

l1=Level1.new
print l1.printvar1, "\n"
print l1.var1

I get the following output:

% ruby test.rb
var1 set.
test.rb:13: undefined method `var1' for #<Level1:0x23d5e8 @var1="var1 
set."> (NoMethodError)

I'm running version 1.8.0 preview3 on OS X.
