Rails - Sep 2006 - class works in console but not in RoR debugger??

Hi,

My code works perfectly from the console but not via the debugging 
console?
What could be the difference?
Any insights would be MUCH appreciated.

Thanks!!

Larry

console:
Loading development environment.
>> foo = ExtraClnyForm.new
=> #<ExtraClnyForm:0xb77e22e4>
>> foo.valid?
=> false

debugging console after a breakpoint in the controller:
Executing break point "start 1" at 
/home/web/limmud_registration/secure/ror/public/../config/../app/controllers/clny_controller.rb:15
in `new''
irb(#<ClnyController:0xb7c2f6fc>):001:0> foo = ExtraClnyForm.new
=> #<ExtraClnyForm:0xb7b17230>
irb(#<ClnyController:0xb7c2f6fc>):002:0> foo.valid?
NoMethodError: undefined method `valid?'' for
#<ExtraClnyForm:0xb7b17230>
        from (druby://localhost:42531) (irb):2:in `breakpoint''
        from (druby://localhost:42531) 
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.1.6/lib/breakpoint.rb:512:in 
`breakpoint''
...

The class ExtraClnyForm is from recipe 64, Validating non-Active Record 
Objects from the Rails Recipes books. -- It''s a class with a mixin from
ActiveRecord::Validations

source:
models/extra_clny_form
class ExtraClnyForm
  include Validateable

  # Additional fields used in the CLNY Enrollment Form
  attr_accessor :parent # are you a parent or legal guardian?

  validates_presence_of :parent
  unless :parent?
    errors.add_to_base("Error msg goes here.")
  end
end

lib/validateable.rb -- unchanged from the book''s code
module Validateable
  [:save, :save!, :update_attribute].each{|attr| define_method(attr){}}
  def method_missing(symbol, *params)
    if(symbol.to_s =~ /(.*)_before_type_cast$/)
      send($1)
    end
  end
  def self.append_features(base)
    super
    base.send(:include, ActiveRecord::Validations)
  end
end
