Perhaps a bit too specific

Working on Rails with Eric's help, I wondered how params[:user] worked...

Ed: yeah... well I figured it used some automagic to know what parameters it gets, but now I see the automagic as just autosmoke and automirrors

For those of you who might not get it, Ruby on Rails documentation often refers to an API method doing something "automagically", which generally means that it does some stuff behind the scenes that seems like magic.
