Here is an email I received in response to my essay on how to write unmaintainable code.

Lollo : Hans Andersson : hans.andersson@softronic.se : 2000-09-29

I’d like to contribute to your marvelous site with one of my favourite variable names, i.e. lOllO. (Lollo is a Swedish nick-name for the female name Louise) By substituting lower case "L" with the digit "1" and substituting upper case "o" with the digit "0", you get quite a few (32?) very confusing variables.
