I commend you for that, though I have no desire to clean up the messes of others. What would you have me do? Learn Ruby and start rewriting modules? Teach proper metaprogramming to the ignorant masses? The first step to fixing a problem, in this case, is conving people they have one. I'm throwing my hat into that ring.

In reality, I'm just as disgusted as you are and the post title says it all. It's true that Ruby should provide better tools. But it's also true that a lot of what goes on is avoidable and there's nothing wrong with you pointing that out.
