I disagree, but then my terminals and editors are typically around 140 columns wide.
Common sense is whatever is right for the project you're in. Some projects use tabs, define tabs to be eight characters, require 80 column limits, and complain when you use acronyms for your variable names because they're not clear enough.
Some projects you end up with huge lines like the example in the poll, and that sucks too.
Mostly I *try* to stick to around 80 columns, but I won't arbitrarily wrap something which would exceed that by less than 20 columns unless it doesn't affect readability to me.
