That (instance_methods and instance_variables), I can agree with.  To me, 
it's all in how I'm going to use something.  It's rare that I want a hash 
key to be a symbol, but it's fairly often that I'd like it to be a string.

Ultimately it doesn't really matter too much, though.  So, Dan, don't 
change it in this case. :)
