in thread Improve readability of Perl code. Naming reference variables.

It's totally subjective. Whether warranted or not, camel case reminds me of Microsoft code. Underscores remind me of old school programming. I also think camel case is harder to read. Though camel case does take fewer keystrokes to execute. I'll give you that.

$MCF = "Most Clueless Friar Abbot Bishop Pontiff Deacon Curate";
$nysus = $PM . ' ' . $MCF;

    Only if your keyboard doesn't have a Useless Key™ which you've remapped to be a single-keystroke underscore. :-)
