Debugging -or- Lose the "Print Variable" Mentality

Thanks to Mischa Fierer at The Momoro Hoax for getting me off my duff to try out debugging with rails again. I'd not done anything since it didn't work for me in RadRails and XP/Vista. Now I'm on Linux and have no excuses.

Specifically, Use rails debugger ! A tutorial walked through the steps to get started. Look to the Rails Debugging Guide for more detailed learning when the time comes.
