I’m testing Rails 3 beta 4 on Ruby 1.9.2-head, and when I start a  
console and do:

Game.first.to\_sql

I get this error:

ArgumentError: wrong number of arguments (0 for 1)

I know it can find the Game record, because when I type:

Game.first

it returns:

=\> #\<Game id: 1, name: “Galaga”, created\_at: “2010-06-19 11:02:37”,  
updated\_at: “2010-06-19 11:02:37”\>

What am I missing? I just want to make the to\_ql work in a very simple  
case.
