Amen, Mark.

I also find I end up adding more error handling code as I go.
My coding style favors 'readability' over compactness, speed and 'debugability' (is that a word?). For many tasks I attempt, such as internet acess routines, the speed increases seen by further optimizing code are largely offset by internet latency issues.
