1. What's with the rails community's obsession with naming things names related to trains? What's wrong with "mod_rails"?

2. "touch tmp/restart.txt" seems like an odd way to signal a restart of your app... what's the reason behind this?

for web hosting providers only giving ftp/sftp access, there's really no other way to signal a restart than to upload another file. you have no control over the processes and using some web-based administration too complex.
