Just seconds after I posted I found I made a fool of myself. %x{testme.sh} 
doesn't work as well.

You're point is well taken and I must agree with you. However, I'm also 
curious about what's going on under the hood. What does ruby do when I use 
double quote in backtick why it runs the command while without double quote 
it doesn't? (Sometimes I made my life harder by not knowing where to stop 
and keep moving along)
