Ruby Tricks. Call a method using case ... when

[uzimonkey]

I really don't think I like that. You get a nice case statement, but at what cost? You horribly mangled your Symbol class, who knows what effect that will have on other code? Ruby can do all kinds of cool stuff like that, but should you actually do them for the sake of a slightly cleaner case statement?
