 The purpose of this document is twofold:

-    why I write python the way I do
-2) to ensure *I* adhere to my own style because I'm terribly inconsistent

+2) To ensure *I* adhere to my own style because I'm terribly inconsistent
 
 Being terribly inconsistent, the guidelines are not set in stone and if
 you have a good argument for doing things a particular, I don't really care.
 
 *BUT* first and foremost, *code must comply with PEP8 first*. This is easy
