well, i’ll correct myself:
@@'s are inherited by subclasses IF they are pre-defined in the parent. that’s
important to know and i did not see any mention of it in my pick-axe.

my that was a fast reply with an exact quote. you know you pick-axe well! 
i did read that, but i don’t think it clearly states the case for subclassing.
it could just as well mean that class variables are only available to the
class they’re initialized in, a subclass thus having its own independent set.

I'm agree with you, english is a bad language for the documentation :-)))

Just Pick-axe ?
Hang on for a while and you will find out how much Ruby related stuff this
Guy knows well 
… and thus mimicking Godel’s Incompleteness Theorem?
Cheers,

That would be too hard to understand for some people like me (aren’t
they called ‘gaijin’?).
Why not write the documentation in Ruby? Together with the already
existing English documentation, it might be enough.
