I do exactly what you describe with no problems. Are you sure you have not just got a typo somewhere that your brain is refusing to see?

Always a possibility. I'll keep looking. But thanks for the verification that it should work.
Other possible extenuating circumstances I realized might be worth mentioning:
- this is a 1.2.6 legacy app - PrivilegedUser is actually a subclass of an abstract class to facilitate connecting to multiple databases w/in the same app. However, this hasn't posed any problems anywhere else.
class CountyActiveRecord < ActiveRecord::Base @@county_domain = Thread.current[:county_domain] self.abstract_class = true establish_connection("#{RAILS_ENV}_#{@@county_domain}".to_sym) end
class PrivilegedUser < CountyActiveRecord ..... etc etc..... end
