SPACE SENSITIVE and SOME OF US HAVE TO TEACH IT. Do you understand yet?
Are you *really* willing to deal with hundreds of newbies who don't
understand why $a . $b isn't the same as $a .$b and isn't the same as
$a. $b and isn't the same as $a.$b? And do you realise what the only

Sorry, I'm not going to do that.
