Thanks, Roy.  You are quite right. The reason it wasn't working for me 
before was that I was making a silly ruby-n00b mistake of using the 
symbols for the member variables, rather than the variables themselves! 
( :completed - :due instead of completed - due)  I didn't do that 
anywhere else so I don't know what I was thinking.
