If I have the following piece of Ruby code:

class Blah
  def self.bleh
    @blih = "Hello"
    @@bloh = "World"
  end
end

What exactly are @blih and @@bloh? @blih is an instance variable in the class Blah, and @@bloh is a class variable in the class Blah, correct? Does it mean that @@bloh is a variable in Blah's class, Class?
