That's actually been my traditional solution (programmer habit) but,
it depends on who's reading the mail, and whether or not they're
easily confused. I'm used to seeing phrases like your's above, but
that's mostly because one of my professors had a nack for liking
really long descriptive variables. Like
NumberForWhichTheLoopShallRepeatItselfAsManyTimesAsStated... we gave
him a hard time about his style. ;-) The above isn't a real example...
but he did tend to be verbose with his variables.

I always thought it was "the dark side". Oh wait, that's what side of
the *moon* that the *earth* would be on. Never mind. :)
