>I don't see something that is ridiculous and needs to change. I still don't know what we are discussing. If we are discussing case sensitivity in some languages and particularly in C# I would definitely disagree that C# should be case insensitive. It is defined as part of the language (you can find C# language definition here):

I agree with you. It's definitely not an issue when you start from scratch, because intellisense helps you ensure you are doing it correctly and checking which var you really want to use or if it should be the same var. The issue comes into play when you are rewriting a VFP app into C# and you are tracing VFP code (especially for a non-VFP developer) who looks at a var that existed in another prg with the same name but a different case and he/she has to determine if it is another var entirely or the same var or even the same var but not related to the other var because they both are local...

(Changed specificaly to especially because even VFP developers have to figure it the intention of the programmer who wrote the code)
