Before I uninstall/reinstall rails on my Mac, I figure I'll show the error
message I get when I try and create a new rails app in Terminal...  maybe
it's an easy fix?

when I type "rails new" for example, I get this message:
/usr/local/bin/rails:9:in `require': no such file to load -- rubygems
(LoadError)
    from /usr/local/bin/rails:9

any ideas on what might be wrong?  Thanks...
