SYNOPSIS
  attributes.rb provides a set of attr_* like method with several user
  friendly additions.  attributes.rb is similar to the traits.rb package but
  sacrifices a few features for simplicity of implementation: attributes.rb is
  only 42 lines of code.

  the implimentation of attributes.rb borrows many of the best ideas from the
  metakoans.rb ruby quiz

    http://www.rubyquiz.com/quiz67.html

  in particular the solutions of Christian Neukirchen and Florian Gross.
