| mauke | is there ever a good reason to add ampersands to subroutine calls? |
| archon- | almost never |
| el_seano | it seems like a nice touch to include the sigil so there's no ambiguity |

| Yaakov | Ampersands are among the coolest punctuation marks & add their coolness to everything they are used for. |

| apeiron | foo() # pretty unambiguous |
| archon- | &Yaakov& |
| * rindolf | prefers ampersors. |
| rindolf | Or ampernots. |
| Yaakov | AmperSnot |
| archon- | amberbuts |
