Sorry... I'm reading this from the forum interface and didn't consider
people reading it via email.

You are correct. I added

resources :pogos

to routes.rb and now I can do:

<%= link_to "pogo", pogo_path(1234) %>

in my view.

I thought resources were just a batch of named routes and I thought what
I did before was a named route. I need to go check on that.

What confuses me is that blah_path is not even defined. It seems like
if it needed a particular type of argument, then the error would be
inside blah_path -- not in the code trying to find the blah_path method.

I wonder if Rails is eating the top of the exception stack which might
help me understand what is really happening in this case.

Thank you for your time.
