I agree.

To the folks who say that long names are slower to type, or easier to misspell, please do everyone a favor and get a better editor. I don't care which one, but almost all of the good ones have some form of abbreviations or completions. Start typing an identifier, and let the editor suggest the rest of the word for you. One third of the typing, or two hundred percent improvement in readability, depending on your point of view.
