Rails - Aug 2006 - Why does scaffolding''s list.rhtml use "foo.send(column.name)" ?

HI all,

I"m using 1.1.6 script/generate scaffolding.

Why does the view/foos/list.rhtml use "foo.send(column.name)" to
display the contents of each column?
I had to change this to "foo[column.name]" to get the display right in
a couple of models.  Specifically, one model has a column named
''display'', is that conflicting with something internally to AR
?

Thanks for your advice!
