TestFailure: Assertion failed in first practice from
Squeak by Example

Hi Eric,

Check your white space.

There is a difference between 'oh no' and 'oh no '.
While its hard for me to tell if this is your problem
it is a common difficulty. And it will be easy for you
to eliminate it as a possibility. 

Hth.

Yours incuriosity and service, --Jeorme Peace

Yes, the shout method is defined in the String object.
