Thanks; since I never expect to let the user update their information from 
this or similar views, I'd prefer to avoid setting up a 'dummy' controller. 
I just need to user_id to constrain what is displayed and update the record 
appropriately, leaving all the other CRUD stuff out.

However, I'm not at all clear on how I can setup a helper (controller 
helper, I presume) to deal with this issue. Any suggestions on where I 
should start looking?

I would think this would be a good addition to the documentation, since 
Devise is so prevalent in the Rails community.

Thanks...jon
