It ends here. I wasn't and am not trying to force anybody to use my
coding style.

My story:
After the releases, I noticed Barry's improvements on my original and
thought "Neat, he likes it; how can I help?" I made a few things more
elegant. Then I noticed the quoting was inconsistent. I just picked my
method to change them all to. No malice intended! :)

Now that the project is under Barry's wing, I will change the quoting back.
