Agreed - I've never much cared for egyptian braces. Another "evil" to me 
is this sort of if/else construct, a riff on egyptian bracing:

if (foo) {
      bar(foo);
   } else {
      baz(foo);
   }

That "} else {" hanging there makes my brain itch!

If I had to pick between that and a single-line 
"if (foo) {bar(foo);} else {baz(foo);}" version, I think I'd have to sit 
down and ponder a while about which would result in the least 
brain-pain. 

(Just as an observation, I note that in the quoting, my original code 
has been mangled just slightly - my braces should be aligned, but it 
looks like somehow an extra space snuck in on the opening ones)

Remind me again - How many of us here have OCD? :)

Same here. My eyes are able to more easily and fluidly scan this:

if (foo)
{
	bar(foo);
}
else
{
	baz(foo);
}

In my current position, I am often scanning lots of code in a very short
time span as I'm debugging, reviewing, or just reading code to gain an
understanding of it. The faster and easier it is for me to scan, the
better. Symmetry and spacing make a big difference in how fast you can
scan code. It's really that simple for me. The small amount of extra key
strokes needed is worth the gain in efficiency to me.

As others have said, if the code really is that simple, a single line
might be okay - for the moment. The concern that usually prevents me
from writing such is that someone may need to add code within the
if/else blocks later on.  Having everything bunched up on a single line
means that to add something to it and keep it easily legible, someone
has to reformat it, which could introduce errors if a typo is made. I
prefer to err on the side of caution and avoid cramming things together
to begin with. I guess I'm a bit of a purist in that respect. I'm not
worried about it though, because I feel I have sound reasons for why I
do things the way I do, and I do get complimented by my peers on my
coding style.

Oddly enough, the same can be said regarding the masssive amounts of
unnecessarily included text in some articles in this very thread.

Well, I like the } else {, but I can live without it. However your
spacing is messed up, the brackets have to align with the if. That's
non-negotiable.

    if (foo) {
       bar(foo);
    } 
    else {
       baz(foo);
    }

Is perfectly acceptable.

That looks silly to me - the braces all the way to the left ... well

Me too.  We just don't agree on how that looks.  To be sure Pascal, with 
the begin / end statement leaves a very clear beginning and end to 
blocks of code.  Further, if so inclined, you can change case to help 
the reader:

BEGIN

    while cond1 do
      Begin
         if cond436 then
            begin

            else

            end;
      Else

      End;
END;

Or in Ada:

while cond1 loop
   if cond436 then
      ...
   else
      ...
   end if;
end loop;

More concise, and virtually blunder-proof, unlike Pascal with its
unforgivable dangling else problem.

Not really after the else you can have a single statement or a begin end 
block;  yes there is the dangler - but when faced with it, begin end 
makes it all nice and dandy.

Is there repeat in Ada?

      Repeat
         stuff (something);
         more (other);
      Until something or other;

To me repeat/until is one of the nicest contructs in any language. 
Beats the crap out of "while x do ..."

More general:

loop
   ...
exit when ...;
   ...
end loop;

Actually, you can have as many exits as you want, but it is very rare to
need more than one. And you can put exits into while and for loop bodies,
which is often the clearest way of dealing with multiple termination
conditions.

Special case:

loop
   ...
exit when ...;
end loop;

Gives repeat ... until functionality.

I can't agree with that.
while ... is usually the appropriate form (forgetting for ... for the
moment), but repeat ... is the right thing to use when it's the right
thing to use, and you should not have to force while ... to do your bidding.
Horses for courses.

You're reminded on that famous condition:   debugging

Ouch.  That is ugly

That could be useful - I do some GPS decoding where there a lot of 
conditions (error) that result in an exit from the procedure in mid 
course - that precludes action before the procedure/function returns.

eg: set the fail state then do the processing, if successful, then the 
fail state is cleared, if exited, the fail state is already set.

Good 'nuff.  I'll try to get gnat up this weekend.

I think "do while" came about mainly for file operations to avoid having 
having to handle an empty file before something like a repeat loop - as 
well as perhaps "priming" the read state before starting the loop. 
Since I assume an existing GPS recording has at least some data in it, 
repeat until works fine.

Too late.  
I want to write my s/w so I don't have to debug it.
Not 100% achievable, of course, but the closer you can get to that condition
at compile-time, the better.

The eye of the beholder.  I think it is very neat.

Also scanning any container data structure that could be empty, a very
common usage indeed.

"It can't happen, because ..."
That is the attitude that leads to many, many s/w security breaches.

Perl has a nice construct for this:

until ($a == 0)
{
	// something
}

In others (C, PHP, and so on), you'd have to write something like:

do
{
	// something
}
while ($a != 0);

And in AppleScript, you can do:

repeat until a equals 0
	-- something
end repeat
