   But it could be argued that RSpec is a Domain Specific Language of  
its own, and it's not Ruby; it just happens to be implemented in Ruby.

Having said that, I'm fine with using "lambda" and even if I wasn't  
adding an alias to my spec_helper.rb would be no problem if I felt  
strongly about it.
