I strongly support the board position on this. Underscores in method
names and variable names are an abomination against the Ghods. We are
the Knights of the Square Bracket and we
Do_Not_Use_Underscores_In_Method_Names. Aside from any other
considerations, why would we want to make our code even faintly look
like j-j-j-whotsit?
