Anyone else out there have any opinions on this... right now I have a lot of
keywords WITH underscores... my reason for this is that the more specific
I make the keyword, the less likely it will be that it conflicts with
somebody's variable name.  You know... now that I think about it, maybe I
should ditch some of those extra-long keywords.  (One of the reasons I
dislike COBOL is the long keywords.)  If somebody wants to use one of my
reserved words for a variable name, too bad.  ;-)
