In the console I see this behaviour:
>> "19270412000000".to_date.methods
=> ["ns?", "mon", "ago", "end_of_month", "months_since",
"default_inspect", "minus_without_duration", ...
>> "19270412000000".to_date.class
=> Date
>> "19270412000000".class
=> String
>> String.to_date.methods
NoMethodError: undefined method `to_date' for String:Class
from (irb):23
Can someone explain how a method may be present in an object instance
but not in the object class? Does Rails insert singleton methods into
these instances?
