     On occasion, Lew, you have scolded people for ignoring naming

readability. That is, you see value in following patterns beyond
those that the language itself enforces. I put it to you that

    package FEDEX;import java.math.BigInteger;public class clown
     {public static void main(String[]BigIntiger){System.out.
      println(new String(new clown("Champagne Charlie"));}private
       String JFrame;public clown(String Pattern){clown IOException
        =this;IOException.JFrame=new String(Pattern);}public String
         tostring(){return JFrame+" is my name!";}}

.... is perfectly legal Java, which "Java programmers should be expected
to know." Are we agreed?

     However, I don't think you'd argue that a Java programmer should
be expected to *accept* such rot.
