As long as his general rule holds. The white space serves as a word
separator, so really, following that more or less simple rule, it hasta
be a comment, which pretty much kills my last mini-rant--it's a comment
because the rule makes it a comment, and because there's no reason to
take the trouble to prevent it from being a comment so it's a comment,
strange as it might look.
