Ok so i had initially cas RoR off after i saw what i consider to be godawful syntax. Then in another discussion someone defeninding RoR said braces and what not are optional and could be used.. At that point i gave it a second thought because far be it from me to not jump on anything in which there is a bunch of hub-bub. But i have yet to find any example sof this optional syntax , ie one implementing the tried and true (), {}, [] instead of english like symbols suh as end and what not. Call me crazy but i <3 brackets and braces and all that jazz it makes more sense to me when pooring over code than reading for literal statements.

As of yet though, i cant find any examples, documentation what have you covering this. Can some one point me in the right direction or something. I suppose i could jsut install everything and use trial and error but im too lazy for all that at the moment :-)
