Was the comment there before or not? In any case, I believe a comment
doesn't qualify as indented block, if you want to leave the block empty
use 'pass' instead. Also, make sure you don't mix tabs and spaces, which is
also a popular way to confuse Python.

BTW: "while" doesn't need brackets, that's a C-ism. ;)
