I don't want to start the discussion about indentation again; it's no use
since indenting blocks is here to stay. The point is that if you want to 
write code that looks ugly or unreadable you will succeed in doing that,
indentation or not. In many cases, using a variable indentation (depending
on what construct you are using or the length of a line) leads to code
that is visuably much more appealing.
