I agree. I also try to make the flow-control statements that REQUIRE
parenthesis (if, while, & for) look different, too. I always write
functions with the parentheses immediately following the name, i.e.
function(), and control statements with whitespace between the statment
and the parentheses, i.e. if (something) and while (braindead).
