| I've seen most of the style arguments based on philosophy posted on this
| thread, but there is one argument I have not yet seen.  [match the
| results of the pretty printer.]

  I like this argument.  I think we can sum it up like this:

    there is no whitespace after an opening parenthesis.
    there is no whitespace before a closing parenthesis.
    this is the law.  if you break it, it is not pretty.
