Hi,

I’m on edge and Fuser.find(1) works but Fuser.find(:all) shows the error  
[1]. Fuser is declared here [2]. Do you know what’s happening? Thanks.

The error is [3] instead of [1], sorry. The method collect belongs to  
the module Enumerable, but no collect!. Is it exist or not?

Therefore… Is ActiveResource wrong? or what am I missing?

According to the ruby docs, collect! is defined under Array not Hash.
