title: Rails 2: Model.find(1) gives ActiveRecord error when id 1 does not exist
body: <p>I am using Rails 2.3.5 and in that if I give <code>Model.find(1)</code> and if 1 is not in the database, it returns ActiveRecord error. Should it just be returning <code>nil</code> as in the case of <code>Model.find_by_column('..')</code>?</p>
