I don't know.  

	return( a > b ? a : b ) ;

looks a lot more readable to me than

	return a > b ? a : b ;

Maybe I'm a coding wimp, or maybe I shouldn't use complex statements, but I
have (what I think are sound) reasons for doing so, and the former is more
readable to me than the latter as it sets off the expression being returned.
