Also note that some environment.rb's come with these comments:

Rails::Initializer.run do |config|
  # Add additional load paths for your own custom dirs
  # config.load_paths += %W( #{RAILS_ROOT}/extras )
  config.load_paths << "#{RAILS_ROOT}/app/models/some_model_group"
  config.load_paths << "#{RAILS_ROOT}/lib"
end
