In truth, I'd rather not use "Hungarian-lite" on parameters and 
handler-local variables and I think <publisher>_<module>_ prefixes on 
command and function names can get long.  (Though I would use those if 
a customer asks for them in a coding standard.)  However, Ken and 
Richard were quite persuasive, made some good arguments, and were not 
pushy at all. I had to applaud and I almost regretted buying all that 
throwable food at the corner market.  Almost.

I did hear references to "anarchist" after that.
