Fair enough, I'll file that in the "you learn something new every day"
file.  Actually the more I learn the better the day.

I haven't run into this since my preference is to parenthesize
arguments unless it's part of a DSL.  So I would have coded:

foo(bar) {}
foo(bar) do..end
or
foo(bar {})
foo(bar do..end)

Thanks!
