title: Can't install gems on Windows 7 64
body: <p>No laughing now...
  I say this because there are a lot people who have already asked, not necessarily for the sass gem but for other gems. Answers almost always deflect the asker into building a virtualbox linux environment.
  Okay, I've already got that, but I'd like to use the windows environment for personal reasons. 
  I followed Sass's own directions:
  <a href="http://sass-lang.com/install" rel="nofollow">http://sass-lang.com/install</a></p>
  
  <p>Ruby is supposed to be working in Windows 7, so I'd be grateful for answers that actually allow me to install gems in the windows environment. It's not a firewall issue. I turned off the firewall temporarily to check.</p>
  
  <p>I've installed Ruby using the download at rubyinstaller.org.
  I'm trying to install the sass gem. Gem will not install any gems, so it's not sass-specific.
  It looks like the problem is related to https.
  I'd be grateful if someone could tell me how to make this work.</p>
