There are few things in this world more terrible than war. The slaughter of fellow human beings often for a cause only led by the leader who rules them with an iron fist. But sometimes there is a cause for which a people, a nation or a group of likeminded weirdoes can unite under, believe in, and fight with all the cause and belief in their hearts with. With the world teetering on the brink of possibly the next great war as chaos flares up from country to country I believe it is time to state where I stand, how my core beliefs hold and prepare myself for the inevitable onslaught of my mortal enemies.
I speak of course of the all important issue of tab spacing in C/C++ coding. There are two clear lines of thought, two sides, and no others. You either use three or four space tabs, and to hell with whoever uses those of the other type!
I am, and always will be a three space tab supporter! Three spaces for all! Let four spaces be reencoded and trimmed down I say! Down with four! Down with four!

Cor! Think of all the extra effort those poor misguided bods are using on pressing 1 more button each time... Effort & energy better used on consuming chocolate...!
