I agree. I'm a great fan of Ruby and "disliker" (not a hater) of Python. Nevertheless, I don't like Ruby's "end" keyword; I wish Ruby were aware of indentation. I found Haskell's indentation sensitivity quite natural and extremely useful. I prefer Ruby to Phython because Ruby is or looks cleaner in the OO department.
