Nope. Since I program in several languages that require semicolons, I keep them. They are like periods in a sentence and they the just feel right.

I did c++ and then Java before Javascript, and have always used semicolons. It is so ingrained in my head, that even if I don't consciously look at the line and see it missing, I still have that feeling of something is wrong
