I recently got a variable named "foo" edited out by an ITSO editor.
Because everyone knows that foo is a variant of fubar which is an acronym
with a *bad word* in it - "foo" might offend a reader.  The compromise was
to name the variable "goo".

The next step may be to disallow all variables starting with "f", and who
knows, maybe "s" too, for good measure :))
