Funny story: Before I started a camp, I went to a "hack night" where they had professional RoR devs as the mentors.
I was still learning Ruby at the time and didn't know how to access an object's member (instance) variables. I asked one of the mentors how to do it (I couldn't find the answer quickly from the documentation). He was stumped and had to hit the docs.
That's like a professional C programmer being stumped at how you refer to a variable's memory location.

Funny how far people can get when knowing little.
