I have a ruby method (deactivate!) that is on an activeRecord class. However, I can't seem to find where that method is declared.

There have been numerous developers on this project, so it could be anywhere. There is a deactivate! on an unrelated class, but it doesn't seem to get called.

Any ideas how to find all the superclasses for an instace, or where to find the code for deactivate!?
