Same bowel movement, different cess pool!

Can someone please explain the logic of having undefined symbols default to random values instead of throwing a NameError? Because this is making me F'ING NUTS PEOPLE!!!!

============================================================
 Code Sample
============================================================
class Foo
    def foo
        $stdout.write("@poo = #{@poo}\n")
    end
end


============================================================
 Interactive Session
============================================================
rb> f = Foo.new
#<Foo:0x79e6680>
rb> f.foo
@poo = 7
