Taguchi san,

I like the coding style below for one main reason: it's easy to comment 
out if needed.

IMHO good coding style should support the following:
1. Easy to read. Puristic styles are a matter of opinion. I prefer to 
maintain a hybrid concept between K&R, BSD, and none-of-the-above; 
choosing one where it makes the code easier to understand at first (or 
second) glance.

2. Easy to comment out. Since Perl does not support block comments like 
C (/* and */), I usually refactor key blocks of codes into functions, so 
it's easier to deactivate them (eg. for debugging purposes).
