I just realized something else.  Because you're not passing a block 
here, your counter method is useless -- the variable interpolations in 
that string will only be done once, and every call of the factory 
thereafter will set email to "[email protected]".  There is *no possible 
way* for this syntax to work as you intended.  The *only* way to get 
this to work is with a block (or with eval, but that's silly).

In other words, your aversion to blocks as arguments appears to be 
breaking your software.

Best,
