Forgive me, but I actually do think that's silly.  If I really needed
to do that I'd do

@comment = Comment.find(params[:id], :include=>[:post]
@post = @comment.post

and save a hit to the database.

I'm having a really hard time wrapping my mind around the nesting,
except that the URL looks pretty. Do you really mean to say that we
should be accessing both objects that way? It seems really hackish.
When I did this without nested routes on my first project, I built
URLs this way but never used the post_id in the URL at all. Is that
wrong?

I'm just looking for some enlightenment here, not trying to be
difficult! :)
