#IRC Response
=begin
Needs some work, but I could definitely see this helping those people who like to sit in IRC and be jerks when people ask questions.
You could leave your computer and continue be just as unhelpful as you could if you were still there.

def irc_person_response(question)
  answer = question.gsub(/How do I/, "Why would you want to")
  if answer == question
    answer = "Why?"

# Rails autoloading, while nice in theory, frequently doesn't work. Since Rails 2.3+
# is so fast when completely reloading the server, I wrote this script to listen to the
# given directories, and kill/restart the server when any file is changed.
#
# It's quick, simple, and it reliably reloads your application when changes are made.
