When Postgresql complains user does not exist

	This can happen when active directory or someone else installed postgresql without proper right like a sudo brew install postgres instead of a brew install postgres.

	To fix you can entirely destroy the db and recreate it with your user:

	rm -rf /usr/local/var/postgres && initdb /usr/local/var/postgres -E utf8

Just to show a few students a little more about objects

	# encoding: UTF-8
	#
	# I realized objects were hard to grasp
	# You already understood the building blocks of programs(String, Fixnumb, Array, Hash)
	#
	# Look at the following to see what you can learn:

	s1 = 'String is an object'
	s2 = String.new('String is an object')
