One of the advantage I'd see with using the ruby dsl is testability.
Others may feel that testing in C is fine but I find that its requires
a significant amount of more boiler plate then in languages with
introspection or reflection. This boiler plate makes me feel like I
can't do my normal development cycle.

Dave's Definitions: Morning, is after I've slept for more than four
hours. Lunch is the second meal of the day no matter the hour of
consumption. A long drive is one longer then you have last slept.
Ineffable, if you don't understand I couldn't possibly explain it.
