Sorry, hit the enter key prematurely, That 'bit more concise' bit of the
spec should read:
describe User, "description" do
it "should not show emails" do
User.all.should be_blank
# Or, to be a bit more concise:
User.all.select{|u| u.email == '[EMAIL PROTECTED]
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>'}.should
be_blank
end
end
