Hi,

glad you got it working!

I think you need only need those include statements, if you installed
a facets > 1.4.5.

I `require_gem 'facets', '= 1.4.5'` in all of my projects before doing
anything else, just as a security guard (I don't have any bigger facets
version installed, but just in case...)

The glycerin is when you don't require Nitro or Og via rubygems.

The top of my run.rb's look like:

   require '/path/to/nitro/glycerin'
   require 'rubygems'
   # a specific facets version
   require_gem 'facets', '= 1.4.5'
   require 'facets'
   require 'nitro'
   require 'og'

I never use gem versions because I like messing with the nitro
installation all the time. ;)

The glycerin.rb only sets up the paths for nitro, it does nothing about
facets btw.

Hope that helps,

Jonathan
