Hi Bruce,

>The fellow had replaced all his standard code variables with every possible foul word (and he seemed to know all of them): cuss words, profanity, sexual terms, various bodily parts, and every other bad word you can think of that most people don't use in polite company. The code was hilarious, and very embarrassing for everyone who had to help clean it up.

Nowadays it would be an even bigger deal because someone who was cleaning up the code could file a harassment lawsuit.
