My own knee-jerk reaction was "Hungarian Notation Bad!" and googling
about for "python hungarian notation" led me through some like-minded
sites.  But I also found this entry on Joel Spolky's site (http://
www.joelonsoftware.com/printerFriendly/articles/Wrong.html), that
warns against tarring all Hungarian-type notations with the same
brush.

Wow, that was fascinating. I had no idea Hungarian notation originally 
didn't mean to prefix the object type!
