Someone else mentioned Scheme. Me. By the way, that reminds me of another parenthetical question that I forgot to ask.

Isn't that a little foolish? :-) It's OK to strenuously disagree, but let's fight fair, as it were. (After all, your argument could be stretched beyond reason into promoting a move toward more Python-like syntax. :-) The original request was for _moderate_ consistency in the sense of a convention that happens to better reflect _some_ people's natural semantic intuitions (and thereby get rid of what for them is a nagging pointless ambiguity). > I think we would end up > looking more like Perl, where array names are marked with a special Or we would end up, heavens forbid!, where global, class, and instance variable names are marked with a special.... :-) FWIW, IIRC, I think Perl6 is changing the Perl5 convention to a more intuitive (again, IMO) sort of consistency.
