Rails - Feb 2006 - distance_of_time_in_words_to_now with "ago" suffix

I wanted the distance_of_time_in_words_to_now method to have ''
ago''
suffixed to it when the date is in the past, I assumed this would be the 
default behaviour but apparently not. I know of a REALLY messy way that 
i could solve this with, but it''s so ugly I can''t be bothered

Does anybody have an easy, elegant solution?

<p><%= distance_of_time_in_word_to_now(@created_at) %> ago</p>

Isn''t that what you want ?

Hope that helps !
