In particular I'm referring to blank lines that have multiple spaces on them and no content.

One of the issues I've noticed for people submitting Pull Requests, is that their linters/text editors automatically strip them when saving changes. This obscures the changes that were done, and happens to alot of contributors.

To make it easy for everyone else contributing, we can make a single commit whose only purpose is to strip out all the lingering white-space and fix alignment so that all subsequent contributors don't have do worry about it.

@tonyroberts if you ok with this, i don't mind going through the files and cleaning them up and submitting a PR for it.
