OK I give up, how do I do this...

I have a DB that stores dynamic variables with I group into
group_id's. For instance here are a couple examples of db rows:

title="name", description = "john", grouping_id = "1"
title="location", description = "USA", grouping_id = "1"
title="comment", description = "hello", grouping_id = "1"

title="name", description = "frank", grouping_id = "2"
title="location", description = "CA", grouping_id = "2"
title="comment", description = "hi", grouping_id = "2"


Sure I could create a DB with these columns, but for various reasons
I'm doing it this way.

SO, how do I store all this information in a hash? I want end up
looking something like this:

@vars = {:1 => { :name =>
"john", :location=>"USA", :comment=>"hello"}, :2=>{ :name =>
"frank", :location=>"CA", :comment=>"hi"} }


I tried this:

      @vars = Hash.new { Hash.new }
      Mymodel.all.each do |a|
            @vars["#{a.grouping_id}"] = { :"#{a.title}" =>
a.description  }
      end

But that only stores the last variable in each grouping ID
