I particularly hate it, but Python has lots of good things which compesate that (another annoying point of Python are slices -- mine are always off by 1). I always write explicitly ends as #end, so that I can reorganice the code easily if necessary. Maybe in the future, when Ruby matures, I could change my mind, but currently Python is still my favourite scripting language (as formerly was Tcl).
