Looking through my code, the split-up lines almost always include
string literals or elimination of meaningless temporary
variables, e.g.:
self.expiration_date = translate_date(find(response,
'MPNExpirationDate').text, '%Y-%m-%d', '%m%d%Y')
The other cases are when indentation levels get the best of me,
but I'm too lazy to refactor.
