Yes, and come the revolution, every last one of you will be down the salt
mines.

I don't mind using capital L as a variable, but l looks too much like I
and 1 in most typefaces. Capital O is another nasty one. I also try to
avoid using a as a variable name, because a is a definite article
in English (like "the") and that makes it difficult to write grammatical
sentences about what you're doing.
