So that's not a good thing. Well, I think 'simpleton' and 'singleton' are synonymous terms (about 98% sure of that if this were a lifeline). But, the problem would remain if singleton isn't a good fit to begin with. I actually think singleton is a good fit and therefore so is simpleton. --J -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
