Rails - Oct 2006 - calling an ApplicationController method from console

I am trying to nail down a bug involving a call to a method in 
controllers/application.rb. Since the error messages I''m getting to the
browser and logs are useless in this particular case, I want to call it 
from the console and look at the output.

I cannot for the life of me figure out how. How do I call a method in 
ApplicationController from the console?

Thanks much!
