[Rails] Re: About "Rails Recipes", Fowler, 2006

Hey Marnen,

Suppose someone posted on the Math Forum (if there is such a thing)
the question: what are the roots of the following equation:
6x^2 - 13x + 6 = 0,

I'd respond "3/2 & 2/3", not:
1. use the Quadratic Formula, nor
2. factor the polynomial

After answering the question asked, I'd probably provide links to
factoring and the Quadratic Formula.

For this app, we don't want any plug-ins. Discussing AuthLogic is
secondary. No one seems interested in helping with the original
question. Is that because the question is unanswerable, or because
neither of you can answer it with the facts as I presented them?

As Hamlet said so eloquently, "That is the question."

Best,.
Richard
