Devin-

Keep standard handlers (i.e., mouseUp) as short as possible, putting the 
real code in separate handlers:

on mouseUp
  doSomething
end mouseUp

on doSomething
  --lots of code here
end doSomething
----------------------------------

Quote string literals:
Use "hello" instead of hello.

----------------------------------
And since you've already decided that not everybody will agree with all of 
these:

Declare your local variables and enable the "variable checking by default" 
option.
It will help prevent typos and cut down your debugging time.
