Well, the strange formatting can probably be blamed on Deja, his
newsreader. It has a nasty habit of inserting and deleting line breaks,
seemingly at random. Whenever I post source code using Deja, I've taking
to apologizing in advance for what it might end up doing to the
formatting.

I think the full package name syntax (in isolation) looks fine. But
there really is no excuse for the random identifier casing. :-)

Now that we have finished making fun of his style and typing
capabilitites, I wonder if anyone can answer the poor bumwad's
question...
