I'll be out of jail in 30 days.

The original programmer will be fine once the stitches are removed.

Actually, all kidding aside, yesterday I enhanced a 1700 line program with these variables:

  Cust
  CustCmmts
  CustComments
  DelCmmts
  CustNbr
  DelDate
  Cmmts
  CustID
  Comments
  CustDel
  Del

The variables "Cust", "Cmmts", "Comments", and "Del" should have different names. What are they? I spent half a day just trying to figure out what everything was, one line at a time. You can't globally locate, edit, cut, paste, or change without fucking up everything else. (And please don't ask me to use a fancier IDE. Just name your variables so the next guy doesn't have to suffer.)
