hashes? but may i ask why you're so hell-bent on linq? Linq is a really bad match to ruby with the expressions. it would require some significant amount of work to get that to work correctly. AFAIK there is no way in IronRuby to build expressions except use the raw API, but nothing is in there yet that makes this easier to do.
Anyway you can reuse anonymous types did you know that?
