Actually, it's:

irb(main):002:0> cgi.query_string.split("&").each {|x| p x }
"key=RUBYRULZ"
"key2=rubyrulz"

I'm sure you just meant that as an example of how to access the query
string directly, but FYI, it's broken in other ways too-- modern
browsers are allowed to use ';' to separate variables in a GET
request.  In fact, I believe it is now the preferred form.  Much
friendlier to do:

cgi.keys.each { |key| p cgi[key] }

anyway :)
