I was thinking about Erlang a bit today, the fact that it's objects
are all immutable and it's usefulness to concurrency. So I began to
wonder, what would an Immutable Ruby look like?
* Would it make setter methods effectively pointless?
* Overall, would it help or hurt efficiency/speed?
* Would it ruin Ruby's elegance?
* No more #<< :(
* No more Symbol vs. String!!! :)
* Is such a thing even possible?
