Ruby's require is case sensitive. Whether that's a good thing or not, it's
something to be aware of when requiring files. Require will load a file into
your ruby space once whether it's a ruby file or a dll or other binary

No, I have these lines on top of my script:
require 'watir'
include Watir
as described here: http://wtr.rubyforge.org/example_testcase.html

So why does the casing matter? While we are on this topic, what is the
difference between include and require?
